“Long term support” is 15 months?

Is this a fucking joke?

Codeberg is run off of donations, they have no service contract revenue. Nobody, much less a volunteer, wants to commit to a 5 or 10 year service plan like that, it’s not sustainable for a small project from a non profit.

I am sure Gitea will be happy to provide you longer support if you pay them for it /s

It’s about 5 times longer than previous releases were maintained for, and is an experiment. If there’s a need for a longer term support branch, there will be one. It’s pointless to start maintaining an 5+ year branch with 0 users and a handful of volunteers, none of whom are paid for doing the maintenance.

So yes, in that context, 15 months is long.

I’m working with an OS with a 26-year support window.

LTS is 10 years. Support the one that RH/Rocky toss into the next release. Anything less than 8 years requires air-quotes around the ‘L’.

MFW I get downvotes for repeating what used to be considered Enterprise support before the dotcom bust. Sorry to be the voice of the past.
