One may want the federation ("I can use all those forges without creating multiple accounts" and "I can open a pull request from my forge into another forge") without wanting the social network angle, right?


Yes, for you there is Radicle.dev then


Radicle is decentralised, not federated...

Also if everybody moved to Tangled, I would have to somehow interact with it, wouldn't I? I dislike the social network aspect of GitHub, but it doesn't mean I don't need GitHub.


There's not a big need for federation if it's already decentralized. Either way you can do some research on other options, no one is forcing you to use one or the other.


And you can just use Tangled without the social network aspect. I don't see why you don't want me to use Tangled just because I don't like the social network aspect?!


Why would I care what you use? I just said perhaps @theamk is not the target market if they don't like the social network aspects, and then you replied to me, so I'm not sure why you're on my case specifically. Use what you want.


And my point is that they (or I) may be the target market of Tangled while not being into the social network aspect of it.

Which seems totally reasonable, as per the Founder/CEO of Tangled: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49335338.

> Use what you want.

Then don't tell me to use something other than Tangled, I guess?


You're reading too much into my comment suggesting an alternative. As I said, I don't care what you use and you can take my suggestion or not, I'm not telling or commanding you to use it.
