New Open-Source Tool Spotlight 🚨🚨🚨

VISTA is a Python-based AI chatbot built using OpenAI GPT and LangChain. It integrates with Pinecone for vector databases, focusing on semantic search and managing context. Looks like a good starting point if you're exploring AI chatbot frameworks. #AI #Chatbots

Ah, yes, because what we really needed was yet another shiny tool to transform our chaotic #GitHub projects into glorified endpoints no one asked for. 🚀🔧 Forget fixing your code or collaborating effectively; let's just drown ourselves in more #buzzwords and pretend it’s #innovation. 🙄🧐

For people with their own websites and domains, what do you use to host the site? I'm currently using GitHub pages for a links page, but I'd like to expand the site with some other things (e.g. portfolio, potentially blogs) without being explicitly linked to a public repo.

I have a domain, but most website builders I see require paying to connect your own. Free would be ideal, but I understand if that's not the case.

Starting a new project, which I plan to make open source, and hope to eventually build a community of contributors. However, I'm hesitant to put it on GitHub. I have my own Forgejo server, but I don't know how likely people are to contribute if they can't just use their existing GitHub account...
