JMP: How to use Jabber from SMS
The Soprani.ca project, and Cheogram in particular, is pretty big on bidirectional gateways.  The most popular Cheogram-hosted instance, so popular that it gets to own Jabber IDs on cheogram.com, is a bidirectional gateway to the telephone network.  How is it bidirectional?  Don’t you need a Jabber ID to use it?  Of course not!

From any SMS-enabled device, add +12266669977, which is the gateway’s phone number.  Send the foll … ⌘ Read more

No on gitlab. If its self hosted gitea is best in class.

I can see hosting a mirror on github if only for the redundancy/visibility. Some projects will host but then direct contributions on their self host. Like Go does.

I would suggest using a vanity domain that can redirect tools like go get to hosting of choice. And not require rewriting all the packages any time it gets moved.

@eldersnake@yarn.andrewjvpowell.com There isn’t an equivalent for those because:

Markdown is not a replacement for HTML, or even close to it. Its syntax is very small, corresponding only to a very small subset of HTML tags.

You can read more of its philosophy at Daring Fireball. There are enhancements to Markdown (CommonMark, for example), that add extra to it.

@fab@foobucket.xyz No need to apologize 🙂️ Speaking of being active I’ve gotten absolutely nothing done on my twtxt project this week. I think I need to rethink a bit to find a fun next step.
