The right time to look elsewhere was when Microsoft bought it.
The next best time was when viable alternatives like GitLab and later, Codeberg appeared.
The next best time was when it became clear that they were stealing your code to feed into their sparkly autocomplete and were going to sell it back to you.
The next best time was when they dumped a bunch of vibecoded garbage into the codebase and killed the uptime.
The next best time is now.
You don’t even have to migrate all your stuff. Just start all your new projects on Codeberg, or GitLab, or something self-hosted. Once you get used to the new place, you can migrate your old stuff when you’re ready.
This is exactly it, Microsoft always makes things about themselves. They change everything, mostly for the worse.
Comments like this are so frustrating to see, as my company goes backwards, moving from Gitlab to GitHub.
Federated git forges can’t come fast enough. Fuck gitlab for so willingly dropping the ball
Is your code free for others to do whatever the fuck they want to with it? : codeberg
Do you want to put certain restrictions (eg financial)? Gitlab
Codeberg doesn’t allow you to use AI with your repos. Even if it is just writing your docs for you.
Radicle is decentralised though!
Yeah, I don’t think I have a codeberg going at the moment because I want to do CC4NC.
There’s like some scripts I don’t mind people making derived commercial works since they’re fucking tiny, but other than that, I don’t want people getting rich off my code.
I also have lots of scripts I find handy but would never share. I just need a safe third party to host it.
Yeah it was completely useless today.
We need decentralized forge such as radicle.dev to become more mainstream and people seeding tons of repo!
Any alternatives with a good UI? Really don’t like the ones for codeberg or gitlab tbh, and GitHub is bearable
Honestly, for me the Forgejo/Codeberg UI is the best out there, I actually like it even better than GitHub. I think you just need to get used to it. If you had been using Codeberg the last 10 years and just discovered GitHub today, you’d take one look at it and say the UI is bad.
Maybe yeah
Already migrated to gitea
