Is there any type of email list I can subscribe to, to be informed of news/updates while (and even after) the site is in invite-only beta?

You can sign-up and I'll invite you to a chat room I'll set up based on chatto.run very soon. That'll be my main outlet for news and announcements.

Awesome, tyvm!

You shouldn't allow repos without descriptions. Do people really cannot be bothered to write one sentence that describes the repo?

Why is it any of your business how I do or don't describe my repos? (Genuine question, it seems like a really weird demand to impose on other people for no particular reason)

Published repos are for collaboration.

Regardless of that, these don't seen to play for the same audience. Codeberg Terms of Use[^0] makes it clear that it's only for "projects covered by a licence for free and open source software, free and open source hardware, or free cultural works", and "You must not share projects that mostly consist of code written by "generative AI"-tools". They also only provide private repos where the FOSS system need it for the…

Not a problem if you don't ask a robot to write code for you.

They also don’t allow code about cryptocurrencies.

They are strongly ideology-focused and it’s a matter of time they ban something you want to upload.

Love it and will try to find a way to use it and pay for it. That name though, does make me feel that somewhere in the stack is a tool called Gitler. Sorry!!

Thank you, but what? The name was meant like: `Push in (Europe)` hence, pushin.eu

Any relation to Alexander Pushkin? ;)

He was also a European…

Yes, sorry this escaped containment before I was able to update the landing page. Since the product is in invite-only beta still, I focused on the UX of the platform instead of the "marketing materials" aka. Landing page

Trust is not "marketing materials". Folks trust that you keep those promises, that their code ist safe. Your product is trust, not the application. Code and application are just the vehicle to deliver that.

You don’t have to have all of that material published and polished before you turn your website live. It literally is stuff that belongs on your marketing Wordpress static site or whatever.

If the founder had done a big b2b ad blitz without that stuff, sure, some griping might be warranted. But this isn’t that: some fledgling product website went viral-ish in HN and you’re complaining about the digital equivalent of the paint not being dry.

Says who?

(Of my 200+ published repos, I'd say about 175 contain code I wrote purely to scratch my own itches - if other people find it useful, great! If they don't find it useful, that's also fine with me - I'm not sure why I should be obliged to go out of my way to help though?)
