If the far-right hates Codeberg, that only tells me Codeberg is doing something right.
Well left but yes
The Message clearly stated that it was far-right, not left.
The joke being “they must be doing something left”
I don’t get it, sorry.
Codeberg isn’t doing something right. They’re doing something left by opposing these people on the right.
It also took me a second but I got there
Left instead of right. That’s all there is to the joke. Replacing the word right with left because it’s not a right wing thing.
what’s the point in attacking a source control website anyways?
Classic case of coop the resistance by introducing completely different talking points.
FOSS is not left or right, it’s FOSS. Those trying to change it to something else is trying to coop it.
There is no controversy. The blue vs red lens does not make sense in this context.
Sharing your work without cost to people who need it is pretty solidly left. But it certainly isn’t red vs blue, not least because party political colors vary by country and in the US, neither refers to a left-wing party, and in most countries red aligns with left.
FOSS is political. Sure, there are right wingers in FOSS projects, but the nature of it is leftist.
i see it as more of an evolution.
Like patent system, litigious closed source software produced very little and what it did produce did not have funding to be properly maintained
whereas
FOSS fostered peer collaboration improving the entire ecosystem of how to go about producing better software, produced alot, and what it did produce did not see much funding to be properly maintained
Before a political ideology claims victory i insist maintenance be fully funded.
Claiming victory while marching off a cliff is laughable.
No party represents producers. Otherwise H1B visas would not be a thing.
It’s probably to make minorities feel unsafe, even in their own spaces.
Well the open source crowd is probably one of the most diverse communities in so many ways.
Everything from wife-killers, toenail-eaters, to geniuses that rolled a one in social skills. From Mexico, to Israel, to Indonesia. From a kid in the library who can’t afford a computer, to millionaires running a data centre in their basement.
Diversity is one-third of DEI, which currently is public enemy number one. So here we are…
Everything from wife-killers, toenail-eaters, to geniuses
Stop spying on me please.
Yes yes… Dear genious 😌

How can we help?
Got one of those and not even sure I have a codeberg account.
ok there was that time I left a comment on a librewolf issue
I’m not so sure it was an organized attack or rather a 12 year old kid who found out a stupid way of accomplishing a stupid thing.
I don’t know if there were other things done, but those 2 words I’ve read are more like 2 words a non-native kid would use rather than a far right manifesto, AFAIK, 😅
Codeberg is one of the best websites on the Internet right now. This blog update of theirs doubly confirms it for me.
That’s a great response. Makes me really respect the people who run Codeberg.
Did Codeberg do something/take some stance to attract the attention of the far right? It feels like such an arbitrary target?
From what I gather, I don’t think it’s about any stance from Codeberg in general, it seems they are attacking “several projects advocating tolerance and equal rights” in particular. They just happen to be hosted in Codeberg.
Either that, or it’s not selling out to corporate exploitation/AI like Github is and the ancaps hate that.
All of the above.
Can confirm, just got phishing mail “from Codeberg” containing the n word in its subject (?)
Same. Was very confusing.
Same here. Such a jarring and upsetting way to start a morning
me too, but hopefully the issue is now fixed and those assholes kept banned
Not necessarily a phishing mail. I got tagged in an issue that some idiot created and codeberg dutifully sent me a mail notification.
Got the tag email last night. The user was named @truth and all I had was an email titled “N***er Balls”.
Same. Thrice
Codeberg seems to be down atm. I hope they aren’t under an even bigger attack
I think that’s just you, it works fine for me
Hmm, might be. Up again now anyways, lasted for ~5 minutes
Yeah, they were definitely down again: https://lemmy.today/post/23792488
And they definitely got spammed again.
Is the term “far-right” used to mean anyone who doesn’t obey marching orders and won’t conform to opinions of others?
Dude, do you think a group that hates “diversity” in its every shape and form is just “moderate”?
There is no such thing as diversity if nobody is allowed to reject what you believe in, reject your opinions, a la “diverse opinions and beliefs”.
Believing that certain groups must be eradicated isn’t covered under my tolerance of “diverse opinions”.
By your logic, you must show respect and acceptance to libertarians or anyone who follows religious teachings if they are not trying to punch or shoot anyone. Other than that, that’s what criminal law is for, to protect everyone from execution or assassination, but rejecting people, refusing to associate certain types of people because they find certain kind of people disgusting does not equate to planning mass murder.
Do you think one should also show acceptance of highly defamatory speech, and only punish the very people that act out on them?
Publicly banning opinions and beliefs is the fastest way to lead to murder and physical violence. Most commonly, murdering those that have been banned for not conforming. But if you can find other areas of personal interests and enjoyment to build friendships with people who disagree with your opinions, the collective whole is not so hostile.
Literally the opposite.
After the French Revolution, parliament was arranged so that the people who supported democracy and freedom literally sat on the left hand side; and all of the freeloading, self serving, bootlicking monarchists that wanted to return to rule by a king or queen sat on the right hand side.
Far right are that but more extreme. They don’t just lick boots but also the assholes of the politicians and billionaires that they worship like gods.
No, anarchists are in the left.
Yes, anarchists are leftists. I am asking about the context that people use the term “far right” as a collective insult. The common theme I see is it seems people are labelled “far right” as a tactic by those who live through the internet and not outside shaking hands with new people, done as tactic online to prevent anyone speaking bluntly that is not terrified of words, or disagreements and objections.
far right is nazis pal
Is there any evidence that the people doing the attack are Nazis? Based on the content of the e-mails, they seem more like 13-year-old edgelords.
What my comment is replying to:

Yeah this may have fooled people before Trump and the Charlottesville NC rally and the rest of the world embracing hate, but they ain’t fooling anyone anymore. Stuff it. We know and you know what TF “far right” means. Stop the concern-trolling bullshit.
Haven’t you heard? The masks are off. You don’t need to justify it anymore or hide it. Just come out and say what you really believe.
Wrong social network bub. You might be looking for gab.
No, it means “reactionary.” Expand your vocabulary.
No, it’s used to mean anyone who’s extremely likely to obey marching orders, dancing orders, camping orders, attack orders (jan 6th on USA, jan 8th on Brazil) and conform to the opinions of their masters
I woke up to an email saying ni***r balls lol
Same
Did you subscribe to the “ni***r balls” newsletter?
Same! Very confusing thing first thing in the morning
Issue #1113 by any chance? :D
Issue 572 xd
so interested in what the “several projects advocating tolerance and equal rights” were, do we know?
