      Im not in the scene but I do hate microslop, can you transfer your history and such that it is seamless?

        Yes, all the history is in your local copy too so technically you can just import it. But Codeberg actually offers a migration feature.

    Well, that’s quite ironic, because their fiscal sponsor and biggest donor (in both directions) is “Hack Club”, which insists you use GitHub and Figma everywhere and lies to you about deleting your data (source: me, you will have to take my word for it).

    Damn, I also want to move away (to codeberg), but it seems that they don’t have cross-repository code search (at least I failed to find one), which is one of my most used GitHub features. Like “lang:nix some-service-name” to see how people configure a specific service. Is there any way to achieve a similar thing on codeberg?

        I mean yeah, but then people who search in a similar way would not be able to find my configs for reference, and that seems unfair.

          Simple solution is to have another remote on github and push there so it’s searchable to others but handle PRs, issues and releases on codeberg. People are not leaving github because there’s some issue with hosting code there. The issue are with the development process.

    I’ll share more details about where the Ghostty project will be moving to in the coming months. We have a plan but I’m also very much still in discussions with multiple providers (both commercial and FOSS).

    • GitLab -> too enterprisey, danger of enshittification, if not already there
    • SourceHut -> too different
    • BitBucket -> lol
    • Codeberg -> GitHub without the bullshit

      I hope it’s Codeberg. I think it’s a fork of gitea. And gitea can be migrated to Forgejo, which is working on federation. So I can have my server, pull code to it, work on it and for a PR to your server. No more needing accounts everywhere. And the federation well be ActivityPub powered!

      If we’re not considering self-hosting:

      • GitLab - asks for phone number/cc to create an account, enterprise-level UI (in a bad way)
      • SourceHut - free (during public alpha that might end one day), ran by a controversial figure
      • BitBucket - “Code and CI/CD, powered by AI”
      • Codeberg - limited to FOSS projects, fork of Gitea, CI is compatible with GH actions

      I moved all my active and new projects to Codeberg the moment GitHub started pushing their Copilot crap everywhere. I just knew nothing good would come from it.

    lol. you’re leaving for the outages?

    i left the day microslop bought it. i didn’t delete my repos… but I switched to using gitlab and now codeberg

    I’m actually surprised to hear about the outages. i thought they were reliable…

    Has anyone compiled a list of where projects are moving to? I know many linux desktop applications are self hosting on gitlab, but i’ve also seen gitea and codeberg. If anyone has opinions about a preference, do comment. I have been enjoying self hosting gitea for my simple personal projects and for deploying simple web apps, all on $5 vps.
