No, it's not strictly related to that - they want something that is CLI
accessible. Gitlab has this here: https://glab.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
and github has this here: https://github.com/cli/cli - the next question is
whether the gitlab/hub hosts are blocked by a firewall (no idea) and/or
whether the instances are self-hosted (github: no, gitlab-videolan: yes).
Yes, self-hosted is more preferable, I recall github has blocked devleopers
in some country by US trade controls. Who knows what's the rules will be
changed someday as it's controlled by company.
Something that doesn't require another account would be nice, which is why
I like mailing lists. Although in this case a move to GitHub wouldn't affect me
personally (I use it a lot) - if I didn't, I would seriously reconsider if the
mental
overhead of yet another account (and all the baggage that comes with it -
passwords, MFA,
data breaches, etc.) is worth contributing to the project.
Ideally, something self-hosted like Gitea or GitLab with a federated approach
(i.e. ForgeFed)
would be fantastic for a case such as this. I'm not sure about GitLab, but I
know Gitea is
working towards this.
