Is there no git hosting service left that isn’t pushing censorship and fascism? I think I should just start self-hosting at this point.

    Aw, is someone sad that a nonprofit won’t spend their own money to host shitty pump-and-dump tools destroying the environment? Little pissbaby need a minute to compose themself?


    Edit: By the way, speaking of fascism, OP…


    Edit 2: Just want to say I find it immensely funny that the two people in this thread bitching about this democratic decision and calling it “fascist” and “authoritarian”, respectively, have posted an image of Germany captioned “The aggressor nation?” and knowingly, intentionally continue to fund neo-Nazis in Sweden.

    It’s always projection from the “woke moralists!!” crowd.

    git is decentralized for a reason. In the age of robots and cheap VPSs, if you really want a vanity web page / code forge to show your code, it is like an afternoon setting things up and the robot will do most of it for you. Yes, it has always been time to self-host your own code. I don’t bother with a code forge, but I do have gitweb/gitolite running for a very light weight setup to push and display code

      Codeberg runs on and develops Forgejo - a lightweight open source forge anyone can take and run themselves.

    I dislike scam money as much as the next person. I do not, however, dislike cryptography. There’s a really good common in the thread about elliptic curve cryptography not having a place on Codeberg anymore and I think that’s valid. I don’t even know if OpenSSL could have a place on Codeberg with this decision. Their nonprofit, their rules. Just not very libre-minded and definitely sets a bad precedent. And before someone tells me Microsoft actively censors GitHub, this isn’t a whataboutism thread. It just reduces my trust in a supposedly open collective.

    Think this might be a hot take but crypto is better off hosted on a blockchained git alternative like ngit than codeberg or any other. And while unintentional is ultimately healthier for what crypto is.

    Its incredibly trivial to just host up your own instance if gogs or gitea on a cheap computer, throw woodpecker on it if you want easy CI/CD

    It doesnt take much hardware at all for a git server, a raspberry pi will handle it just fine.

    Or just a cheap box liquidated from some office, just go buy some box from a used pc seller in your city, they’ll have some.

    Toss a 1TB drive in it.

    Throw debian on it.

    Install Gogs + Woodpecker

    And then set em up and connect the two together.

    Grats, you have your own self hosted git server whee
