@voidcontext @radicle Signing a commit (with the radicle ssh key) and then pushing it to GitHub is certainly a great way to show the accounts are linked !

As far as I understand, that is only on the project level though - not on the user level.

I would ideally be looking for a generic way for the GitHub user to attest "this is my #Radicle public key and here is something signed by it to prove that it really is mine".

Maybe signing a commit to their "GitHub Profile Readme" though ?? 🤔 💡

Fellow #GitHub users ! I need your help!

Context: More and more people are trying out @radicle as a #decentralized #GitHub alternative.

#Radicle has a different identity system than Microsoft's, so when moving projects over to Radicle it is important to know which GH user the Radicle projects belong to.

What would be a way you would use to link your Radicle and GitHub identities?

(Radicle identity is based on #SSH keys, specifically `did:key`).

Boosts for reach - appreciated.

@Gray Was the repo set up with just a single delegate?

Generally speaking, in cryptography (that #radicle relies on), it's pretty destructive to lose a private key and there isn't a way to recover from that.

It is recommended to set up repos with at least 3 delegates (2 delegates have the problem that if one key is lost, you can't reach quorum for further changes to the repository identity).

You might want to join radicle.zulipchat.com and the #support channel there for more details.

@jonathanmatthews I use Radicle, which syncs public repositories with other nodes. This includes issues and patches.

All my Git repositories are in Radicle. My primary laptop has a Radicle node with all the repositories I have. The laptop gets backed up (with rsync) to a USB drive and a server every day.

I also have a public Radicle node, but that only has a subset of the repositories I have on my laptop, so it doesn't need to get backed up. But I back it up daily to my laptop.
