I develop a moderately popular open source project and self-host it on Gitea. But I also mirror it on GitHub and accept PRs there. And one PR submitter on GitHub said they preferred to contribute there because that’s where potential employers look for open source activity.

Could employers also look on Gitea/Forgejo? In theory, yes. But some of them literally ask for your GitHub profile on their application forms…

You too!

If so many folks were mislead by what you said, perhaps consider that you share some responsibility in communicating clearly.

Misunderstanding someone on the internet is stupid?

So then I guess I’m not seeing how it serves as an example…

How many examples do you think are needed before people stop doing drugs?

Same here, although it’s only like 90% of my posts. I figured it must be on my end, but I guess not.
