I've started a new job earlier this month. I now work on and for #Radicle , a distributed git hosting system and peer-to-peer code collaboration system. I'll be working on continuous integration support.
It's open source and written in Rust, and is making git be #distributed again.
@liw Congratulations Lars, and good luck!

An interesting project, I didn't know of. And an interesting topic, as CI is prone to be abused.
I try to stay away from the sweet nectar, Microsoft gives out for free on GitHub (maybe just a prejudice).
On GitLab from the freedesktop.org-Project, CI pipelines are well restricted by now.
And all I want is just try out modern methods of software development and distribution.
People like me need good tools to be able to handle this.
Wish you all the best!
@liw Interesting, how does that compare to forgejo for example?
@monsieuricon So far I've not seen Radicle using cryptocurrencies, but I understand it has gone through several design iterations.
@liw @monsieuricon I also was vaguely interested in that - something like p2p project hosting and search is needed - but I read that they were going down the web3/blockchain path and at that point I bailed.
@liw @monsieuricon The foundation seems to have its own RAD token. I hope you're paid in real money, unlike the Strategic Financial Partner Manager role they're advertising.
@ilmari @liw @monsieuricon the RAD token that was used to raise money for the project is no longer part of the product since over two years.
@monsieuricon @liw we've split out the product & organization and gone through a complete rewrite; you should come back!
@liw congrats! sounds cool
@liw oh, awesome! Say hi to Fintan for me. :)
