IMO web based bug trackers are overkill for personal projects. A workflow based ticketing system with an external interface adds a lot of unnecessary overhead unless you want users to be able to submit bugs, and even then, email works pretty well.

I don’t think so. This fixme-in-the-file wouldn’t suit me well for example, because a lot of my projects are not file-based, and also because I regularly find myself writing lengthy comments under my gitea tickets to preserve how did I do something, or when something doesn’t work to record the symptoms and what I tried to fix it, etc.
Gitea is probably not the best tool either for this, but it’s quite good, and to me objectively better: all notes (issues and their comments) are timestamped and those can’t be modified by mistake, tag support, several other aspects for categorization…
If you’re not working with files, then sure. For coders, putting tickets in the sourcecode enforces locality, and it also preserves history… because most people use a VCS.
But it sounds like you’re using it as a journalling system, and that has different needs.
Forgejo/Gitea are probably the most common “low-resource” (read: doesn’t use a couple of GB RAM, like Gitlab supposedly does) code forges.
Do you want to impress future employers by running an enterprise-grade bugtracker or by showing that you can document your work with meaningful bug reports/etc.?
If it’s the first option, consider Gitlab, if it’s the second option, what ever you like.
Cool, will have a look at those, thanks! More looking to impress with my knowledge of using a variety of bugtrackers; have got plenty of evidence to show that there’s a couple I know how to use.
Good stuff, makes me wonder if we need a rewilding community.
I did something similar in my previous house, so some suggestions:
On one side if the pond dig down 5-6 inches and lay down some plastic sheeting. You can then turn this into a bog garden. If you lower the lip of the pond slightly on that side, excess rain water will drain into the bog garden.
Have a chat with the Council, local wildlife groups and Landlife - it may be you can get a specific wildflower seed mix for your area, preserving local plants that thrive in your soil/climate. It may be the Council is planning or have made a wildflower meadow (or you could encourage them to do so) with a specific mix. You could end up with large wildflower meadows and then little wildflower islands linking them up.
Frog spawn is relatively easy to come by, ask around others with a pond - my neighbour was dying to give some away. I ended up chasing frogs around the house so be careful what you wish for.
Look after your hedgehogs - I had stone walls which wasn’t great for them (when it snowed you could see their footprints coming out if one gate, onto the pavement and down another). If neighbours are interested you could drill a suitably sized hole in the fences and feed a shirt length of pipe through. You can buy little hedgehog hotels which you could stash away in the corner of the garden. I’ve currently got 4 of them roaming round.
Put up a bee hotel. Help those rarer bees find a home. We have a local pest control firm that will also rehouse tree bees and they have a network of boxes across the region that they take them too.
Put up a bug hotel - you can also get combined bee and bug hotels.
If there is any fallen or chopped down wood then pile some up and let it rot a bit. Great for bugs and fungi.
Great tips! Thank you. I’ll look in to Landlife. And I’ll have to look in to a bog garden to see if we want one; beneath the turf and building rubbish, we have very hard, dry clay soil.
One of the recommendations I’ve seen twice regarding frogs is not to transfer stuff between ponds because of a risk of disease?
Hedgehogs is something I want to sort. We used to have visitors as our row of houses 'back gardens are linked via an old hedgerow to a big unused plot of land. However, I foolishly blocked up the hole the hedgehogs were using as we were also getting a lot of cats in via the hole who like to shit all over our lawn - which isn’t great for our little kids playing in the garden (which they do basically year round). I’m going to restore the hole, but only the recommended 13x13 cm in the hopes that stops the cats.
Hedgehog hotel may be introduced into the hedges that are behind the pond in the picture. That might be step 7 or 8 ha.
We do have a little bee hotel (pre-built, 20x15x15 cm or so of stacked bamboo sticks with an aluminium roof) - but it’s always just been overrun by spiders. Any advice?
We don’t have any chopped wood - but I might put the hedge trimmings under the hedge instead of in the garden waste bin?
I’m hoping to make it healthy enough that the flying fuckwits (presuming you mean mosquitoes) are kept under predation. We already have a mosquito problem via our back garden as a neighbour has a (I think) neglected pond. Might try and help them get it sorted if all goes well.
We’re also not far from a fairly small and sluggish river so… ¯_(ツ)_/¯
You’re not wrong, but those flying fuckwits are an important and valid part of the ecosystem. Rewilding is all about doing away with some of our human conveniences that have made life difficult for all types of wildlife.
Vulcan is a proud Relay user and relying on this app for Reddit for years, but The Snoo Platform alienated me away and nowadays, Vulcan is roaming around here and fediverse.
I noticed that too, loaded up Starfield cos of the hype and while the graphics are great, the movements are clunky as hell and the NPCs still walk slow as fuck when you have to follow them!!! That can’t be difficult to fix ffs
I’m not sure what you mean. I play games from 3-7 years ago that do a good job on faces, gestures and motion, and it all looks much better than Goldeneye. Gameplay though, yes, that hasn’t even been consistently improved since 1988 as it is conceptual rather than technical.
