Off the top of my head: with Forgejo, you alone have the burden of hosting your repo, which means if your repo becomes popular, you have to deal with the costs of all that traffic to it.

The nice thing about the P2P/seeding aspect of Radicle is that anyone can clone your public repo and help seed it to others.

I see that Forgejo is working on federation which should help distribute the load of hosting a repo, but that doesn’t look to be completed yet

How so?

There’s a web app in addition to the electron desktop apps, you can find an example here: https://feishin.vercel.app/

Great concept! Btw in addition to this, if you post something on Mastodon and tag the lemmy community in the post, it posts it to Lemmy directly.

Just pulled the latest and tried again, and it works now! Thanks

Dude this is amazing! Exactly the sort of thing I’ve been hoping would pop up to further “decentralize” the torrent search experience.

So I’m trying to run it on my machine through the docker-compose option, and I’m seeing something weird. It shows as successfully running, but when I go to the port it should be running on, I get “unable to connect” on my browser.

When I check my containers running, it shows the 3 bitmagnet containers, but the port doesn’t show.

Ah good to know, thanks!

I use PodGrab, and think it’s great for saving local copies of podcast episodes to your server:

I think that’s only if they detect that you’re connected to an IP address that they recognize as part of a commercial VPN service, since i’m sure they have a list.

I use netflix when connected to tailscale VPN on both my phone and apple tv and it works fine, since the exit node that netflix is receiving my connection from isn’t a commercial VPN IP

I believe that’s what the author of the repository is doing, and they’re then filtering out torrents without seeders and adding the list of magnets to the .csv file.

If I had to guess, that’s probably for the Speech to Text feature, so you can reject that permission if you don’t want to use speech to text.

There really needs to be an option for instances to upload images to imgur using their API.

imgur has been hosting images for years, and has the resources and experience to deal with stuff like CSAM.

It shouldn’t be the default/only option that hosting an instance means having to open the floodgates for anyone to upload images to their servers.

From a liability standpoint alone, it’s an absurd thing to just expect every instance to accept.

Ah interesting, thank you for the clarification!

What is meant by “non-free network service” in this context? Geometric Weather doesn’t charge for anything, nor does it even have in-app purchases.
