Forgejo

I have Forgejo working pretty well. I also have a Forgejo runner running workflows successfully using a Docker-in-Docker system running in Kubernetes. This works pretty well and I like it, but I'm starting to run into some challenges with more advanced workflow use-cases.

For example, I only have one runner so jobs stack up. I wasn't sure how to implement multiple runners given that each runner needs to save a static token. I saw some references to ephemeral runners. Does anybody use auto-scaling or multiple-instances such as with ephemeral runners?

Additionally, using docker-in-docker has some issues. The Docker daemon gets persisted across jobs so the output images stack up and I have to periodically run docker system prune inside the runner. Trying to run docker commands that require logging in inside the workflow also conflicts with Forgejo's own control of the Docker Daemon.

Does anybody else run into these kinds of issues and have a good strategy? There was this issue about using firecracker micro-vms which could have fixed the d-in-d issues, but no recent updates.

My instance is getting pummeled by scrapers crawling nonsense. Like issue and pull searches with every single variant of label combinations.

Everything's coming from a shitload of different residential IPs at a very fast cadence.

There's just not that much content on my instance to warrant this traffic. It could be scraped in a minute or two like this if it were legitimate traffic.

What's going on @organicmaps@fosstodon.org? Have you gone back to github?

Edit2: The project was forked https://codeberg.org/comaps/comaps

Currently https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forgejo redirects to the sub-section of Gitea article. Would it be time to write a whole Forgejo article?
What information / sections should be included in it?

https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/src/branch/forgejo/release-notes-published/7.0.15.md

The difference between forgejo and codeberg.org is clear. Forgejo is the software and codeberg is the entity that owns it, provides the domain name, etc. and also hosts a public forgejo instance at codeberg.org.

Lately, I've seen that there is also code.forgejo.org, which I assume is run by the same people. Why are there two public instances run by the same organisation? Are users supposed to migrate from one to the other? I see that code.forgejo.org currently has version 11.0 deployed which afaik is not released yet, so is that instance just for testing purposes?

GitHub has gone - long live Forgejo (@forgejo).

Fully migrated out of Microsoft’s walled garden after they blocked us:

• 54k commits
• 9.5k issues
• 4.3k pull requests
• 100k comments

Everything moved. Nothing left behind.
