With Gitea Ltd sudden incorporation, the soft fork of Gitea launched as Forgejo (which is what Codeberg now runs on) most of the forge federation efforts have shifted in that direction, as it offers the highest guarantees of remaining to the public benefit. Gitea has received a NLnet grant to add federation support, but it is unknown to what extent they are actively working towards implementing its goals. Those interested to learn more can join the Forge Federation general chatroom on Matrix.

Yes, I think people should skip to the "We have to keep going" section of the article to put the previous text in better context.
Thank you for your participation in the FEP process. I am really happy to see this finalized, and also that Fediverse Enhancement Proposals is picking up steam to bring more standardization to the Fediverse.
I have happy news in that regard. We have migrated the watchlists to the Delightful Project on Codeberg. And they are rendered on the Delightful Club website.
Bit weird. An anonymous Google Doc, a screenshot of a toot saying "this is legit" and no other references. Could at least provide the URL to that toot.
Besides someone opting in, I hope that the person being quote-tooted also receives notification of that and maybe even notiications of all replies on the quote toot. This so it isn't a mechanism to "talk behind someone's back" which by leaving someone unaware makes it more suited tool for abuse.
SSPL is source-available, and not open source. There was lotsa discussion about the SSPL license, which was created by MongoDB, and it is a complex matter with all kinds of judicial angles. In summary it mainly benefits Mongo most of all, whose 'open source passion' is marketing-speak mostly. I forgot a lot of ins and outs, but just dug up a random find about downsides (2 parts) and impact.
A pity (for me) is the SSPL licensing, probably chosen because of the use of MongoDB. When using an alternative (maybe FerretDB) it could be Apache 2.0, which was the originally intented I heard (and still mentioned on the website).
What kind of attention, you ask? Well, read here.. https://mastodon.social/@atomicpoet/109742115695898174 .. the billionaire VC kind of attention.
Super :heart:
In theory a delightful list could be hosted anywhere. But this hasn't been tested with Delightful Club website, so I'm not sure it will pick that up as a list. So easiest is to create a repository on Codeberg for the curated list. Then you can set up the list with an existing one as an example e.g. Delightful Creative Tools. There should be a Contents, Maintainers and License section, as well as a contributors.md file. Once the repo is up, I can add to top-level repo and add an entry for the website auto-generation. And handle some small additional things via a repo issue (setting avatar and repo topics).
There's no need to look into it. I am the creator of delightful project, and I say it is possible ;D (By adhering to Creative Commons, I consider those open data resources)

Eternal September is when influx from some other (often shittier and collapsing) platform overwhelms the unique culture that existed before, and in time fully replaces it. Destroying what existed before.
🧠 💭 Figure out strategies & actions in comments below .. participate!
For example, I introduced 2 hashtags for awareness:
- #AvoidEternalSeptember Raise attention to the culture clash.
- #DonateToFediInstances Help admins and moderators withstand the influx and give them your support.
We want to be gentle, welcoming to newcomers. Show them around. But also keep having the nice chattering and culture we had before, and maybe give those some extra boosts to exemplify and spread the vibes.
Here's a poll to make newcomers aware that taking Twitter culture with you on the Fediverse is just weird.
Fedizens... Be strategical in how you toot to help avoid that from happening

I commented on the original post. Activity has shifted to Forgejo.
