Codeberg bans AI-slop.
they aren't banning the use of AI-tools in coding, or any & all AI code, but apps that seem to be mostly vibe-coded will not be allowed on the site
@pedersen The maintainer staying true to his vision for decades is rather amazing. He really figured he could take on the world: create a new object-oriented programming language, thumb his nose at SQL, compete with MS Access and Delphi, and make something #OpenSource. That's a lot of big visions all at once.
@pedersen I sincerely wish the #OpenSource world could make something like Delphi or Lazarus (and is #Linux-first). Something that works in #Wayland, and something that uses a modern native GUI widget set. Something that plays nice with #Debian packaging (and isn't just a #Docker container with a bunch of node.js, sketchy-to-secure muck shoveled into it).
It's those "opinionatednesses" I would target today.
IMHO: This is a larger mission that only someone wealthy enough (and Linux-friendly enough) like #RaspberryPi could do, but they have bigger fish to fry: for example the industrial and military markets.
@Codeberg Hackernews called it, the internet delivered: https://vibeberg.org/
🤣
#lol #vibecoding #vibeberg #codeberg #forgejo #thatescalatedquickly #llm #ai #fossdrama #foss #opensource
TIL there is a very longstanding attempt to make something similar to MS Access and Delphi (so-called "integrated application platforms"), but #OpenSource . It's called "Suneido". It has several strong opinions (that are quite idiosyncratic today), making it less palatable to most #Linux geeks, but it's still alive and kicking, barely (thanks to the original author, Andrew McKinlay of Axon Development Corp).
Strange opinions it has, which made sense about 27 years ago:
- SQL isn't good enough, better to make something even better than SQL. So it uses a tightly-integrated relational database, but it isn't SQL (just like MS Access doesn't use SQL either).
- Windows is good enough; Suneido isn't really cross platform to Unix-like operating systems
- was partial to C++ at first, but then made its own object-oriented language (the Suneido Programming Language).
- did a rewrite, is now Go-based, but its own language (the Suneido Programming Language) is still used to write applications.
The Go-based rewrite, which has no documentation or website of its own:

And now, after banning vaguely-defined "LLM-generated code", Codeberg bans cryptocurrency projects. Discussion:
https://codeberg.org/Codeberg/org/pulls/1254
The specific ban is for "Content that harms the reputation of Codeberg, such as cryptocurrency related projects".
https://codeberg.org/Codeberg/org/commit/f383b648fd733ab88083dc390b91e77cd7589980
I think the reputation of Codeberg has been now harmed enough. When I originally escaped GitHub, I chose Codeberg exactly for the ethical stance and values. For me, anti-censorship is a non-negotiable ethical value. The folks at Codeberg have the right to run their org as they want. However, having now shown that they consider "censorship" good when it's about things they dislike, this made clear that their values and mine are not compatible (even if I dislike those same things, mind you).
Supporters of this ban say that this "draws a line", that "is not meant to be applied blanket-wide to all projects, only those which are harmful to the community", as if having constantly to worry about the next mood swing of Codeberg voting members were an acceptable Sword of Damocles for any reputable project. What's next? Banning US users? Banning software aligned with "capital-fascist" values? Open-source banking/wallet apps? Quantum computing tools? Robotics?
I'm moving off Codeberg, probably to Radicle. But I feel a bit sad, because Codeberg had the potential, in my opinion, to become the European alternative to GitHub, and they have made clear that they are not ready nor willing to become so. Which is fine: software is political, and everyone has the right to express their political stance.
But we still desperately need an alternative to GitHub.

[Decentralized, federated platform for dog owners]
I haven’t been able to get this idea out of my head for a while now. 😩😁
Why are there centralized platforms for dog owners—but no open, decentralized alternative? 🤔
What if clubs, animal shelters, dog training schools, or local communities could run their own instances while still being interconnected, based on ActivityPub, similar to the Fediverse? 😃
Possible features could include:
🐶 Dog profiles
🚶 Walks & meetups
📍 Dog parks & local spots
⚠️ Poisoned bait and hazard alerts
🔎 Missing & found dogs
The focus would be on data sovereignty, local communities, and open standards instead of a centralized platform. 😉
Attached is a preliminary concept diagram to make the idea more tangible.
I’d be interested to know:
Would you use something like this, or even help build it? ⁉️ 🙄

If someone who isn't on the team says something, they're just guessing. It's not real.
DISCLAIMER: I don't use LLMs, I despise LLMs usage, I think it's boring, erodes creativity and thinking process, and is highly unethical.
Codeberg just banned LLM and cryptocurrency projects. While I agree that LLMs suck hard, I don't really agree with that decision.
My biggest concern is that I don’t know if my projects will be safe in the future, since Codeberg is no longer simply a Git forge that prohibits non-free licenses, but it now bans code that a small (358-person) group of people disapproves.
The problem with this is that, in the future, any code could be targeted. Let me remind you that in Russia, where internet whitelists have already been introduced in some regions, website blocking began in the 2010s under the guise of ‘protecting children’ and the fight against drugs. Tomorrow, for whatever reason, C# might become persona non grata, and Codeberg might ban all code written in C#. Then, for some reason, Codeberg might ban code written by people of a certain nationality. It’s a slippery slope.

The flaw affects XFS filesystems with reflink enabled and has existed since Linux kernel 4.11 (2017). Enterprise distributions including RHEL, Oracle Linux, Amazon Linux, and Fedora may be impacted if vulnerable configurations are present. Immediate patching is strongly recommended.

I have used #Thunderbird for years. I have loved it, but in the last year they have changed a lot.
They are more concerned with money than customers. I made the huge mistake of signing up for Thundermail only to find that it is crap and overpriced.
Now, because I refuse to pay their high prices, I have had my email taken away by them. That is crazy!
As such, I am looking to move completely away from Thunderbird. I need a good, free full-featured open-source #email client that works on Mac and Linux.
Any suggestions?

Codeberg community voted to ban AI-generated code in repositories:
https://codeberg.org/Codeberg/org/pulls/1253#issuecomment-19820434
I am a regular Codeberg user, left GitHub in 2019, and co-maintain Libre projects that saw very little if none at all AI in development.
And still I think this decision will backfire badly.
I, like most of Codeberg users, was not even aware that this discussion was in place, did not vote. This only passed because of the anti-AI Luddite crowd. Which, mind you, has a point, I have very conflicting feelings about AI myself, and I think that the current trajectory is quite worrying. But this is just a knee-jerk reaction that has clearly not been thought of well enough.
I applaude the philosophy, or the intent if you want, of not having Codeberg turn into another SlopHub. But this is fairy-tale wishful thinking. There is no way to reliably detect AI-generated code at scale in 2026.
I can already smell the mutual witch hunts across projects and "camps".
Anyway, I hope I'm wrong.

lol - BlueZ has started using LLM for analysing btmon trace if it has been attached.
I'd have even understood if it was a locally trained LLM - but no, as it''s explicitly stated when creating issue, it's a third-party one!
considering BlueZ is pretty much the sole option for Bluetooth stack on Linux, perhaps there might have to be a discussion for alternatives...
