not sure this is fixable at all until without dropping to https (because of course flakes use entirely different protocol sets for fetchers), and that would force downstream users to set overrides in the flake to use ssh for fetching :/

~~ceterum censeo flakes ...~~

This was fixed by deleting flake-compat, since imo you shouldn't use it for this as it gives anyone using it an extreme case of the "flakes don't support configuration". This repo and the instructions are written so one can just directly import the module, which is the preferred method for non-flakes.

I also fixed the forgejo so that flake-compat supports being fetched as a tarball, see the new readme at: https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/flake-compat
