GitLab has been fundamentally broken for *months* now. In addition to the long standing error where it gives a 500 error during 4/5 login attempts, the last few months it has been completely unable to list projects you are a member of or have starred. How does anyone use it?
Screenshot of the GitLab “Projects” page showing an error banner that says “Your projects couldn’t be loaded. Refresh the page to try again.” Below, the Projects header appears with tabs for Contributed, Starred (4, selected), Personal (1), Member (5), and Inactive (0)”

We’re interviewing @orta.io tomorrow about how CocoaPods is transitioning into maintenance mode.

Do you have questions you’d like answered about the transition? Is there anything concerning you? Would you like to say thanks to the team?

Reply or mail contact@swiftpackageindex.com with questions.

Email marketer checklist:

✅ Has alt text for all images

I mean, technically… 🙄

Today in deciphering reminders dictated to Siri.

I'm *completely* stumped, which means whatever I had to do is not getting done. 😬 What's extra weird is the capitalisation of "Ocean" 🤔
