Hi all,
Since I don't have (and am unable to create) a gitlab account, I wrote a
Gemlog post detailing my responses to a bunch of the issues on the
gitlab repos for Sean Conner's spec revisions.
I can wholeheartedly agree with the gitlab rant. I've never used it
before and was quite shocked of how bad it is. Even github is "decent"
in this regard, on a technical level at least. I can at least *read* a
README, the code or the issues with w3m.
But it's a sailed ship. We can only try to prevent similar moves in the
future.

Should sourcehut https://sr.ht/ be considered? It is also FOSS, has thefeatures we are looking for from a git forge, already has a vibrantGemini community, and places a much higher priority on supportingalternative browsers / graceful degradation. I apologize if this wasalready discussed originally.
