Right - I see the other topic has been locked / author hasn’t returned to follow community rules.

It’s a tough spot, Codeberg has found themselves in and I wish them luck. But beyond that, this is (yet) another reminder that in 2026, if you don’t self host it, the cloud is just someone else computer

    GitHub is a business making a profit from git hosting for corporations.

    Codeberg is a non-profit explicitly for hosting free software projects (FOSS).

    What is Codeberg? On Codeberg you can develop your own Free Software projects, contribute to other projects, browse through inspiring and useful free software, share your knowledge or build your projects a home on the web using Codeberg Pages, just to name a few.

    I don’t think they’re delusional enough to think their mission is to singlehandedly kill proprietary software.
