Another spam wave hitting #Codeberg
Bunch of AI generated issues which look superficially legitimate, interspersed with spamming random crap.
Here's three on one of my #Codeberg repos.
The legit looking one is LLM generated nonsense. Looks vaguely right, but doesn't actually make sense.
Annoyingly, despite reporting the abuse, I can't see a way to delete the issue. I guess I have to manually close it?

I never once saw #Codeberg having an issue. It was always impressively fast. So I became a supporting member - and lo and behold, a minute later codeberg.org is entirely unreachable!
Don't worry, I still love you.
Another update of the Pyriodic Backend project:
Feedback and contributions are most welcome 
A feature that’s currently missing from @forgejo (and thus @Codeberg) is the ability to move issues between repositories (see https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/issues/1280).
Thankfully, Benjamin Melançon created Forego Helpers with a move_issue.py script that does this using the Forgejo API. Sadly, the script has a bug in it (a tiny regression introduced during a refactor) and their Forgejo instance doesn’t have signups so I couldn’t create a pull request, so here is a fork for the time being that you can use:
https://codeberg.org/aral/forgego-helpers
While fixing the bug, I also updated the project to use uv (https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) – think of it as a single tool that’s the equivalent of nvm and npm in Node.js that makes Python, well, usable out of the box.
So to move issue #299 from kitten/app to kitten/site on Codeberg, for example, you’d run the following in your terminal:
```shell
uv run move_issue.py kitten app 299 kitten site
```
That will move the issue (including comments), comment on both the old and new issues to link them together, and then close the old issue.
Enjoy!

Until we get federation going in #Codeberg, I'll settle for the next best thing: RSS->ActivityPub! Now I can boost the most interesting bits of my coding activity from time to time 🤓

How do we solve discoverability when using codeberg and self hosted Forgejo?
Is there already a solution here?
One of the things I loved about GitHub was the ability to search for other projects and then easily start contributing back to them.
I know there's federation planned in the Forgejo roadmap, but is there anything now that allows me to discover others on codeberg or with a self-hosted forgejo today? I want to build a network outside of GitHub.
