hey "git should be done with mailing lists" people
how the fuck are we supposed to search for previously reported issues
hot take: mailing lists aren't actually inherently better. Support them as an option. Don't make people use them.
looking at Chiaki to see if a bug's been previously reported
"repo has moved to [sourcehut link]"
*goes to sourcehut link*
"alright where do we find the previously reported issues?...oh right this is sourcehut, there IS NONE."
...but also like seriously, actual question: how do the "use a mailing list" people expect us to search for previously reported issues??
@frostwolf public mailing lists usually have public archives somewhere
@noiob ...honestly I'm not even sure how to find the mailing list for the project, just that we've heard "sourcehut does things by email"
@noiob maybe there IS no mailing list and it's just "email the project dev for bugs"...
@frostwolf I don't even know what sourcehut is but I regularly stumble across mailing lists for Linux stuff online when researching issues
@noiob it's Drew DeVault's githubalike that has no issues pages or anything and expects people to contribute to projects with email.
@frostwolf ah okay if he's behind it I'm not surprised lmao
@noiob the "if you don't learn the internals of how git object storage works you're not GOOD ENOUGH to use git" guy.
@frostwolf I'm not interested in his opinions
@noiob ...although huh, I guess there's a clone feature now? I can't find an issues page anywhere though.
@noiob hm! does sourcehut make an archive for every repo?
