I made a honest effort, but in the end went back to Git for my personal projects. The advantages Fossil has over Git (wiki, bug tracker) are trivial to emulate with versioned plaintext files, and everything about Git’s version control system just clicks with my head. Having years of experience breaking and unbreaking things helps too.
Tho one thing Fossil taught me is to merge by default, not rebase. Rebase when there’s good justification for it, and the rest of the time, have an alias for git log --oneline --graph --first-parent
(or whatever that was). --first-parent collapses a horrible branchy-mergy history into a linear overview thereof, with details available when needed.
Can’t agree. The internet is composed of ultra high speed, ultra cheap plumbing (financed by normies doing their normie things). We piggyback on it, selfhosting our capsules for next to no cost, freeloading on all the wonderful infrastructure. Don’t look at all that is bad about it, don’t participate and it won’t affect you.
