Self hosting for your own needs is great but you won’t get the “drive by” contributions you get from shared platforms. On GitHub, Gitlab, and Codeberg, if I even see as little as a typo in the readme file, I open a pull request. I will not sign up on a hundred different git hosters for stuff like that.
Are we moving to Codeberg now?
I would like to but I do want some private repos.
Maybe self hosting is the best move from here on in.
Private repos, if you don’t need a forge, can easily be pushed to a VPS with ssh
Or your own server. But yeah this is not so good for the rest of us. They are doubling down on AI.

So what you’re saying is that we need federated git.
Huh. Gitlab just said it’s too hard with their cut staffing numbers and they’re not doing federation.
…git is federated. i’m assuming they’re talking about things like issues and runners, but i don’t think that’s really necessary…
If you read it again, you may find I said gitlab and not just git.
And we won’t talk about how git’s decentralization is nothing like the concept of federation as it’s being used in this entire discussion.
we arleady had this discussion further down a few days ago
