For dev tools and other projects where Denial of Service is not a concerning vulnerability its a wise idea to filter those out so that the noise of DoS vulnerabilities doesn't drown out the rest.
Here's a filter for GitHub's #Dependabot alerts: gist.github.com/voxpelli/d68...
@github.com all dependabot PRs since yesterday are stuck waiting for approval to run workflow.
If that change is intentional, there has to be a way to create an exception for @dependabot.bsky.social

#Dependabot alerted me to a high-severity defect in a transient dependency (the dependency is from Stripe!). The same day a user reported a defect in the system that's apparently been there for quite some time. Both are now fixed in production.
So that's how my #NYE is going.
If dependabot had been able to FF merge the changes that could be FF merged that would have cut down the number of dependabot commits by half.
And it would seriously reduced the visual clutter of main branch by more than the reduction of the number of commits.

Just had to commit plenty of dependabot PRs (update of the checkout action).
Here are my scripts that made it a bit easier:

Looks like GitHub is tweaking Dependabot PR comment commands. Good to know ahead of Oct 2025 so I can update my muscle memory. Always a small re-learning curve with these changes! 😅 #Dependabot #GitHub

For those who moved their projects from #GitHub to @Codeberg
What do you use instead of #dependabot?
If you are not selfhosting runners, what do you use?
#developer #codeberg #runners
IDK about you but I have to start paying more attention to changelogs. Also reducing dependencies by literally copying source code from small (open source) packages is a game changer. #npm #github #hacked #dependabot www.youtube.com/watch?v=jo4L...

Does #Microsoft even care about #Dependabot at all any more? The #dotnet support has multiple open bugs causing valid configurations (that is, ones that worked at the beginning of the year) not to produce results, for months now. For a commercially supported product, that feels like a sad joke […]
Why isn't there a #docker compose #github action?
#github gives you `services`, but if you use them, you likely have a docker-compose.yml, and then you're duplicating your dependencies.
Plus, #dependabot doesn't know how to update `services` images, so your dependencies get stale.
holy shit dependabot can now run on depot runners 🤯
flip one setting and your dependency updates become near instant
you're welcome
