Since it's in the zeitgeist right now, let me note that moving my current projects off Github to Codeberg a while back has made me generally happier. Codeberg has no faff, no Copilot, and no corporate overlord. It just does what Github was supposed to do.

Notes:

  • It doesn't do Github Actions unless you bring your own build server, because only corporate overlords can afford that kind of infra, but this isn't a problem for me. It might be for you. I have one project which needs them, and I'm just mirroring it back to GH (Codeberg will automate that for you) to run the actions on M$'s infra for now. [Edit: They do offer limited runners for actions now, just don't expect to be compiling any kernels on them.]
  • I say this as an open source developer with open source project hosting needs. If you're looking for commercial or private hosting, look elsewhere; Codeberg don't do that. (I'm sure there are lots of options for hosted ForgeJo instances, or you can self-host if you're into that kind of kink.)
  • If you were considering Gitlab instead and still haven't caught on to the fact they're run by fascist collaborators, well, they're run by fascist collaborators.
