We reported earlier that Aevann's GitHub account got jannied. Still no official word why, but our best guess at present is:
rDrama, being one of the most malevolent, cruel, coldhearted online communities you'll ever find, is resilient enough to host our own shit when we get deplatformed. We'd already planned for this inevitability, and we are proud to present our own Gitea instance:
fsdfsd.net
Anyone who wants to contribute code to the site or to host any other rDrama-related Git repo is free to sign up. No more need for a burner GitHub account! We don't verify emails; it just has to be the same as your git config user.email
—even if that's a fake address without a mailbox like <username>@fsdfsd.net
if you want.
We have to manually approve new accounts—Neko says there's pajeet spammers who target Gitea instances —so ping 'aevann sneks jc' with your fsdfsd username if it takes us more than a couple hours to notice.
For people with existing copies of the site repo, you can git remote set-url <remote> https://fsdfsd.net/rDrama/rDrama.git
. Note also we renamed the default branch from frost
to master
—if we're off GitHub, we're using the politically-incorrect branch name.
Special thanks to @justcool393 for porting the rDrama midnight.css theme over and Marsifying the site (Marsey comment reactions coming soon), and thanks to @nekobit for inspiring the domain name.
Finally, if anyone wants to speculate wildly about how the GitHub account got jannied, maybe a certain Dr. Oaken who we know watched the GitHub might be to blame.

Turned off Github now. I thought they were a neutral platform - you never even got a warning. I'll never use them again.

Oveall the github community in infested by SJW, who took control over CoC (code of conduct) and ban any edgy behavior.

Sad to see. I'd have thought most unix/Linux coders would know better than to keep their hard work on there these days.

Yeah, seriously. Circa 09 UTC I linked a directory from GitHub in the bugs thread; still there. We spend an hour troubleshooting why https://rdrama.net/stats wasn't staying cached, still there. Then circa 11 UTC someone in the codecel Groomercord noticed the account was 404ing and we couldn't push/fetch anymore. All Aevann got was a notification saying his account had been flagged. As much as we were kinda asking for it with the BIPOC spam, they're infrastructure, not a community—what do they care? God bless the Gitea maintainers: this is good software.
