Love the idea of a federated github, but I could only find this list of instances, ~~and from my basic test it looks like the search doesn't bring up projects from other instances? Unless I'm doing something wrong.~~

Read my comment again.

They are also working on ActivityPub support, so different Forgejo instances can communicate with each other.

They are working on it. They haven't enabled it yet. And afaik the only thing that works atm is favorite count.

You can track progress here:

https://codeberg.org/forgejo-contrib/federation/src/branch/main/FederationRoadmap.md

edit: atm it seems like these are done (despite the last two not being marked as such, I guess the roadmap is a bit outdated):

  • federated star
  • federated unstar
  • federated user activity following

Oh, my bad. I was confused. I assumed ActivityPub was some specific sub-app rather than a general communication protocol. That makes sense. Would still be good to get a list of instances.

Do you want a list of Forgejo instances in general or specifically ones that have this experimental federation enabled?

[–] tristynalxander@mander.xyz 2 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

General, assuming you think most will enable federation in due time. I'm just looking for the most appropriate place to join with.

Just go with Codeberg.org then.

You can move your repos elsewhere sometime later if you want to.
