They violently break all the recent frontend best practices. Where is the React or Vie, SPA architecture, tons of JS? There should be a federal law prohibiting making fast and simple UIs so that nobody will have concerns that the UI frameworks war leads us to great future.

I'm sorry, sarcasm is not the best way to communicate an important point here at Hacker News. I appreciate the attempt at humor, but, it's not funny.

Don't be so bloodless. :^)

How was this upvoted so often without a single comment?

Bots? I have a hard time beleiving that a paid service has a silent fanbase. But maybe they do.

I'm a wanting-to-be paying user, fwiw. It goes against some of Sourcehut's fundamentals, but I'm waiting for a basic PR UI system, because frankly I just don't like email that much. (though strangely, I love the model of email).

Regardless, I adore the goals of the service and the approach, so my plan is to move all my public and private projects there once I can use a PR-UI/etc - and pay, of course.

This looks suspiciously like a spam campaign to fish for users desperate enough to go anywhere but bitbucket.

SourceHut / Sir_Cmpwn deserves all the support he can get. I don't know if you realize that this guy is earning 10 times less that what he could earn by accepting any of the job knocking at his door. But instead he chose to be a full time free & open source developer financed only by people donations and SourceHut (which is 100% open source too)

Moreover there is very frequently on HN "Github is introducing feature X" or "Company Y is announcing product Z" where those company are multi billlionaire making money by exploiting people data and abusing their monopoly. And all you find to do is be rude about SourceHut, developed by an independent, which is 100% open source, which contains no analytics and respects you

It's written in Python so as soon as they have enough users it will be as slow as any webpage with tons of JS. Thankfully, that CPU load won't be on the client side... so it's still an improvement

OMG! A web server serving raw HTML! The horror!

Monthly operational costs: $783 Maybe there is a relation?

Where did you get that from?

I love the design and wish a sufficiently large part of the web looked like this... Incidentally, it's a bit like HN.

Their page was done in 114ms.

Where are the PBs of javascript, the YBs of uncompressed images in 128x320 res?

Clearly they've messed up their CDN and we're missing content.

There’s not even any analytics or trackers. The shame!

Perhaps one could use greasemonkey to inject Google analytics into arbitrary sites. (And load some font, and perhaps have a 20 second timeout somewhere.)

Am I the only one who can't find the source of this "open source software"? How they can beat Bitbucket while they hide the code under unusable UI?

Bitbucket may have better styles, but its load times are atrocious.

Everything from Atlassian is slow. Tried Confluence lately?
