I’m amused this is here. This was a random reply to someone who thought maybe we were doing this. To be clear: that’s all this is.

But I’m happy to hear all the suggestions.

View on HN

I’d think if CF were interested in branching out (no pun intended) into auxiliary areas, they would be looking into perhaps offering some Netlify-like services to complete the circle (or even acquiring Netlify, which I believe would be a perfect fit for CF).

After clicking through, this was pretty obvious. I think there are just a lot of fired up hackers out there wanting to see WW3 between Github, Gitlab and the rest of the world.

I know this would consume a lot of bandwidth, but it would always be nice to see more official package repo mirroring, like in front of a github repo / npm / rubygems, PyPI etc.

I feel like right now we are in a fairly centralized state regarding where packages come from and outages and other issues can really impact the CI/CD and development of different services.

Too bad, I was really excited about Gitflare :)

CloudHub

We do want to add lots of good developer features to our Workers product so the feedback is great and interesting.

Me too!

Cloudgit has more buzzword power.

If we smash them together we'd get Gitgit, which is probably the best option.

I need a name for our internal Gitea instance, do you mind if I grab this idea? Haha.

* gitgit.at — as in, gitgit.at/username/ * gitgit.dev * gitgit.ist — sounds funny

Feel free!

Thank you! Registered .dev =)

GitChain

Do you have some kind of a script for these CF threads or do you just spend that much time on HN? :)

I do have a script that finds all mentions of Cloudflare in stories and comments and emails. Latency between a mention and me getting mail is about a minute.

well you could help out gitea and make a hosted version on gitlab. there is a ton of stuff which cloudflare could do, like creating a object storage git backend, etc..
