- "a platform built for humans, not AI."

- "Bots are welcome. Slop gets blocked."

- "No AI buttons bolted onto every surface."

yet the entire website appears to be itself AI slop. is the codebase vibecoded too? I seem to get a "connection lost" toast notification every time the page loads despite it being a wholly static page.

your service is founding itself on a promise (forges in general are of course not a novel concept) that i feel you're failing to uphold.

Hi, Peter the Founder of Pushin.eu here. Sorry, the website escaped containment and landed on HN before I had the chance to update the "marketing materials" aka. landing page. So, here are a few points: *The product is stable, but still in development. That's why some of the core things like pricing, etc. are missing. BUT:* 1. Business Model: Pushin will have subscriptions for individuals and teams. Pricing is not ye…

> 4. I say "we" but it's really only me (Peter Ullrich, peterullrich.com) and my dog (Bella, Labrador, beige).

I wish you the best, and I understand this might be necessary initially, but honestly I myself would never use a one man operation for anything I run in production.

Is GitHub really better? If you're a small project, you could always migrate to something else if this guy disappoints.

Your website seems to conflate "Europe" with the EU. Can you clarify, here and on the website, whether the data remains: * in _EU member state_ sovereign territory * in _European states'_ sovereign territory * on the contentinent of Europe or some combination of the above? I am specifically wondering about: * Out-of-Europe territories of European states. * UK, Norway, Russia, Switzerland, Serbia etc.

In Europe people generally use “Europe” and the EU interchangeably. I’m not sure many people would include Russia in Europe in normal speech, unless they were a geographer in which case Russia is partly “Europe” in some cases I think. Even when the UK was part of the EU if someone in the UK said “Europe” they meant continental Europe and someone in continental Europe would be unlikely to mean the UK if they said Euro…

« As a European I’m » – So what country do you hail from? I understand it's not Serbia. Just so this wild nonsense and wannabe satire can have proper geographic attribution. (Because despite there being a strong indidivual factor, the systems governing some countries do breed certain mental dispositions.)

How is this different from a custom forgejo hosted in europe? What features does this provide compared to traditional code forges? Disclaimer: I am building https://juju.bi , therefore you don't need to answer if uncomfortable.

you have a ui that looks practically linear - i like it...

> In Europe people generally use “Europe” and the EU interchangeably. In Europe some people generally and incorrectly use "Europe" and the EU interchangeably. Europe existed far before the EU and will continue to exist after the EU finally comes to an end.

This only matters to people outside the EU. Since most of Europe is in or deliberately out. It’s hard to care too much about that.

How did you choose which countries to include on your map? You have countries that aren't in the EU but are missing countries which are.

The UK is on it, Cyprus isn't, Switzerland isn't… but Iceland is, and Turkey, and Ukraine. But not Moldova. Serbia is on - I'll grant Kosovo, but…

…weirdest map of either Europe or the EU I've seen in a long time.

> Europe existed far before the EU and will continue to exist after the EU finally comes to an end. First clause: indisputable. Second clause: maybe, maybe not. Europe hasn't always existed as a concept, and its longevity is unknown.

> Europe hasn't always existed as a concept, and its longevity is unknown. Europe is the name of a continent. What reason(s) would there be to change the name of a continent? In contrast, the EU is a trading block, set up to foster greater pan-European trading relations. It's not the only pan-European institution. For example, the Council of Europe ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Council_of_Europe ) is a separate pan…

Do you think the Egyptians called it Europe?

When do you think people began calling "America" "America", and why? Or referring to the largest continent as "Africa" ?

I understand what your point was. I was thinking long term and noting that the future is uncertain, at best.

Most of the UK is on it. Northern Ireland is missing for some reason.
