Blender developers moved from Phabricator to their own Gitea instance, about two years ago now. They worked to bring some features to Main that were missing apparently (can’t tell you which), and as far as I can tell it seems to be functionally identical.
I deleted my 13 year old Reddit account and I am so glad I did. They started banning me for the most ridiculous things. I am very vocal about the Israeli genocide and just using the word genocide, was enough for them to temporarily ban me. They follow a zionist agenda and they censor voices that are against genocide. I don’t have to talk about Spez, everyone already knows what type of person he is.
Forgejo, Codeberg, Gitlab, or self-host.
should be pointed out that codeberg is just a hosted and branded instance of forgejo (nothing wrong with it just pointing it out)
Codeberg for sure! I only just made an account on it, but I’m planning to use it :)
- https://codeberg.org/ for personal or small FOSS project
- https://gitlab.com/ for more complex projects (requiring issue tracker, CI, deploy, etc…)
I just migrated my personal projects to Codeberg (and sent a donation their way too!). As soon as I update the origins on my servers I’ll be deleting my GitHub account.
The one FOSS project I contribute to was already being hosted on GitLab to begin with. And my work just announced we’ll be migrating to GitLab as well.
Today is a good day
Codeberg
They want everything to be public with an open source license fwiw
Well shit. I will still self-host sourcehut because it’s so cool from a technical standpoint, but now with disgust for its author
Damn, thanks for linking that report. I have appreciated devault’s work for almost a decade, this is a good reminder that just because someone’s public actions align with my values does not automatically mean they are infallible nor should they be canonized.
git.gay is also a cool git host
Idk sounds kinda gay
Ok my deleted message was: “Saying gay as a synonym for bad or weird is homophobic.”
But I’m not really sure if it is in the context you were saying in, this could be taken as a stance in terms of making fun of people who say gay as a synonym for bad or weird. In which case it is totally ok to be mean to homophobes.
I’m kinda confused is this homophobic or not?
I think they were just making a joke because git.gay.
As in, not as bad or weird but more making fun of the homophobic “it’s gay” argument that used to be used.
I do the same thing with my spousy occasionally. We’re gay as hell, so it’s funny as shit when I stroll by their room and just say, “Gaaaaaaaay~”. Lol.
I just had a pretty intense argument with my friends about this and we ultimately came to the same conclusion as you pretty much.

I just hope people wake up to the fact that at this point GitHub became a social network that just has a code repository attached to it. Anything you care about should be replicated and self host where you can.
You could host your own gitea if your into that kind of thing.
I’ve done a bit of research and forjego is seemingly the better version of gitea.
Its a fork of Gitea by the community after Gitea started doing some suspicious things, I can’t remember what they are.
i never heard of forjego so i looked it up, feel a bit stupid now after just migrating to self hosted gitea ;_;
Apparently gitea was bought by a private company without listening to community feedback on this decision.
Gitlab
GitLab vs Codeberg, go!
GitLab: a lot of cool features, well-integrated, polished. Downsides: resource hog, open-core model (some features locked behind a paid license when self-hosting)
Forgejo (the thing that powers codeberg): it’s federated & lighter on resources usage. Downsides: some features still missing/in development
No experience with Codeberg, personally. My team switched to GitLab at work a few months back and it’s been excellent. They are plenty of features to love, but the better CI/CD support and private package repositories were the deciding factor for us.
I also have good experiences with GitLab. It was very flexible and capable, yet focused. Codeberg seems to be a nice place, but I had trouble finding out its features as clearly as sourcehut had stated theirs. Sourcehut seems really good!
I still use GitHub due to the convenience, but a lot of folks on Lemmy like Codeberg. I also setup a Gitea mirror of my GitHub the other day and it’s pretty cool. Easy to self host
Gitea is nice, the gh actions compatability is really handy
I’m following so many good repos, hard to give up GH. But I can always migrate my own I suppose.
I’m OOTL. What’s happening with GitHub?
Github now reports to Microsoft’s AI division directly
Is that true?
Yep… It was all over mastodon the other day when the CEO quit!
Microsoft bought GitHub like back in 2017.
I knew that part and assumed they were training on repos, but I didn’t know they linked them so directly internally. Like this is the most important asset. Train on every push kinda thing.
I was expecting that as well but somehow Microsoft botched it. Training on failed commits should be the most invaluable asset. Yet their internally developed models (Phi) are lagging back of the competitors.
In a one word… Enshittification
movement of jah people
What’s jah people?
It’s a reference to Bob Marley’s Exodus
i selfhost gitlab for my own use. its similar to github, but is a bit of a resource hog and the project tracking is a bit wonky to use. i have heard gitea is really low resource usage, but has fewer features.
- Codeberg
- sourcehut
- radicle
- self hosted
Isn’t radicle attached to some crypto nonsense?
Edit: I felt bad saying this and then not confirming it, so here you go: https://x.com/radicle/status/1483497327545495555 (I also feel bad about linking to that cesspool, but that’s where the announcement was).
I’ve been self hosting but various projects have moved to codeberg. I like Savannah as it’s more old-school but it’s a bit selective about projects.
What’s up with GitHub?
While it has already been owned by micrsoft for a few years, the github ceo has now stepped down, leading to fears that it’s going to enshittify even more.
