Damn, that's incredibly disappointing...

I use forgejo and it's expected to have federation eventually, but it would've been amazing for gitlab to have AP support. Hopefully in the future it might be picked up again.

It annoys me that we have on one atproto, but there's no fediverse one.

It's cool af (i don't know much abt atproto, but my friend who knows much more about the technical stuff of fedi/matrix/etc likes it more than AP :shrug:) but i wouldn't trust my sensitive repos with it for now. But i guess its the best we have right now :c

Oh noo; forgejo is still not connected? I had high hopes. What's the timeline?

(Honestly, but for the wonky CI spec language I may have switched already)

I'm not sure, it hasn't been announced. They're waiting for forgefed to finish being developed until they implement federation
