I’ve heard the main two suggestions are Codeberg and Gitlab. However, there has been some mixed feelings about GitLab I’ve seen across the internet in regards to them being as FOSS as Bitwarden is with their “Open-Core” model. With Codeberg though, there was a recent major security issue.

I would just be curious to get other people’s thoughts throughout the community, and then I can decide where I want to migrate my repos.

To be honest, I’m waiting until we finally get federated git hosting, specially if done with ActivityPub. I think it fits too well the use case.

I believe forgejo is getting there, but it’s still not possible.

I’m also waiting for this to move some 500 repositories from GitHub to a realistic federated alternative. I follow up from a distance but don’t see much movement on ForgeFed for ForgeJo. Did I miss something?

Codeberg is pretty legit

I’ve been using Codeberg for a while now, however their servers are not always up to par. I’ve been in situations where it takes forever to load content of the code base via their website, pushing to a repo was also really slow, upwards of 30 seconds.

I know they’ve been DDOS’d a while back, but this was about a week ago and lasted for few days.

Any software potentially has security issues. The matter is how they deal with it.

If you don’t need the cicd stuff, Forjejo instances are really easy to spin up or use the ones online like codeberg.
