Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Too bad I can't deal with Gitlab's UI. ~~Codeberg is even worse~~. Gitea ftw.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Uh... isn't Codeberg a Gitea instance?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Codeberg is Forgejo instance. Which is a fork of Gitea lol.

Close enough 😄

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Apparently not. Seems to be a closed version of a fork called Forgejo.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

From what I understand it's just forgejo with a theme and running woodpecker CI. Not sure that really is "closed".

Isn't Codeberg's UI literally the same except a different theme? Maybe I haven't looked deeply enough, but Forgejo shouldn't have strayed too far from Gitea, at least yet?

Okay my bad, last time I checked Codeberg they UI was funky (contrast and all) now seems to be way more reasonable.
