I built GitSocial that allows you to bypass Twitter/Bluesky in favor posting and following straight in your repository: https://github.com/gitsocial-org/gitsocial.

Similarly, VS Code extension is at: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=gitsocia...

I'm working on GitSocial - decentralized open source social network built entirely on Git.

https://gitsocial.org/

Think of it as tool that can turn any repository into a blog/social network in place.

The outage impacted GitSocial minor version bump release: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=GitSocia...

There's no way to tell, and after about 30 minutes, the release process on VS Code Marketplace failed with a cryptic message: "Repository signing for extension file failed.". And there's no way to restart/resume it.

Secondhand Time: The Last of the Soviets by the Nobel Prize Literature winner Sveltana Alexievich who also wrote Chernobyl Prayer is quite a good insight into what a Soviet person is: https://www.amazon.com/Secondhand-Time-Soviets-Svetlana-Alex...

This has not been updated in a year or so as I am working on a Svelte-based replacement:

https://www.nightlife.fm

It shows which DJ's are playing at which nightclubs.

Since Covid started it has been quite empty, hence API/Svelte replacement.
