Re: Radicle: Sovereign {code forge} built on Git
#2The more I have been using git and building my own tooling and services around it for usage, I have figured out that something like radicle feels like the right/better solution, definitely better than what github is atm.
There are rough edges and the seeding thing is a bit mehhh. And honestly there are a bunch of things I would do differently but I like the spirit of things.
Not sure where the authors of the project stand, but it's fun to see them make progress.

#3Love to see it. Unlike tangled.org this is local-first and has a solid story around private repos. I’m bullish on distributed forges in general, but I’m all for experimentation in figuring out exactly what that looks like.

#4I noticed that they moved to a different domain last month: https://radicle.dev/2026/04/23/domain-move

#5I like this idea a lot! I need to find people to try it with, though, which is not so easy with GH being so popular :-(
Some nitpicks:
* What is with the forced serif font on the website?
* Does this support other version control systems? Like mercurial, SVN, pijul, etc.?

#6How well does it hold up under load? What are the CI and PR stories?

#7Radicle is really underrated, especially when working with agents. I find it a joy to use for my agentic workflows.
If there's purely an agentic forge one day, it's likely going to be a distributed one, with cryptographic identities and signed artifacts by default.

Their CI take is early but promising: https://radicle-ci.liw.fi/

AD: The website is currently being redesigned, I suspect we'll have it up in the next few weeks.
No it doesn't currently support other VCS's but we have planned for that possibility in future!

What makes it a joy to use with agents?
