How to register or get an account at git.minetest.land ?

by doweij » Post

I want to report an bug that appeared in mineclone 5. I dont found a way to register an account at git.minetest.land.
I dont want to sign in with GitHub, they removed my Account because I wrote in my Profile description that I like free Software. And GitHub is unfree software owned by M$.

As far as I know: there is no way to register without github account. But check the site and try to find email address and send an email to the owner about it.

(Btw check out this free software allowed github: edugit.org)

Why do so many free projects entirely rely on a closed-source Microsoft service?

I know a git hosting thing which is for free software, its edugit.org. but yeah there is no way to report bugs from an github/mesehub (or what ever its called) source...

so yeah, you might need to talk to the owner of the mesehub thing and ask if normal account registration cam be added or if the owner can make an account for you

Inertia, I think. Though when Microsoft bought them out a lot of folks did migrate to gitlab or others. One of these days I should move my stuff to gitlab, but I haven't gotten around to it -- like I said, inertia.

In a few months it’s 4 years since Microsoft bought GitHub.

whoa, time flies by. Its so hypocritical, that all the open source projects use non free software.
I messaged @texmex , the first user of that gitea instance. Maybe he is the admin.

I can't make an account on MeseHub even WITH my GitHub account. I've tried multiple times; it says it will send me a verification email... then doesn't.
