Looking for your personal lists of Github repositories, which might be deleted from Github at some point, for whatever reason. For example, the maintainer might delete his account from Github or archive all his repositories.
A famous example of an open source project, which had trouble to continue thriving, is youtube-dl
.
Which projects’ repositories do you think are worth backing up?
Nice clickbait.
Most emulators, especially for recent Nintendo systems
Thanks for the suggestion. Do you have a list of Github URLs, leading to some of the most important emulators, in your view?
Why do people insist on using the mainstream forges for code that is at risk for take downs? There are plenty of other forges like sr.ht, codeberg you can use. They even support the git archive command which github doesnt.
There’s also https://radicle.xyz/ which seems interesting.
And https://forgejo.org/ for self hosting (codeberg uses it) it’s also getting federation so forges will be able to interact with eachother too.
Worth mentioning for those who care- radicle is funded by radworks, basically a crypto organization. (Source: their faq)
Damn :( Thanks for telling, i didn’t know.
both also great options. Trying to remember if radicle the one i archived in my notes for further investigation into integrating into my compute platform.
