  • I used many of them and settled for bare repos on an host with ssh access

    • gitea / gogs: too many database corruptions I am getting ptsd just talking about it
    • gitlab: too big, too resource hungry for something so simple. Didn't use 90% of the stuff that offered
    • gitbucket and onedev: those are very good and are sort of setup and forget because they just work. They have different features set so check them out.

    In the end given that I just have a bunch of users and don't need many fancy features (we share patches over email and matrix) on our community server we are just using ssh and klaus as a web frontend

  • I agree with all the comments so far but would like to add my own thoughts. Users are not important. Personally I moved to lemmy because the quality of discussion on reddit dropped so much.

    This has been my trajectory:

    • avid reddit user and content creator there (not sure if the right term) 2016 - 2018
    • lurker from 2018 to 2023
    • completely dropped reddit and moved to lemmy

    My hope is that we can have the same kind of content and discussion in pre 2020 reddit

  • As someone who used those during their peak, I’m well aware of the risks of getting unwanted stuff, not to mention that you’re fully exposed within the network.

    I have been using it behind a vpn and so far never had a problem. I have never had so many "thank you" from any other old school p2p software

  • I suggest to use mldonkey. The UX is very different so it takes some time to accustom to it but it is very powerful software:

    • it connects to more than one server
    • the search is better
    • it is very stable Be sure to use the latest version, keep an updated server list (or fetch them from clients and servers) and to configure kad.

    It works very good for niche stuff, especially if you have a community around the stuff being shared
