    Abandon Microsoft. Move to Codeberg.

    Edit: Spellings

    Edit2: setting up a git server takes about 20 mins if you have a machine with disk space and a domain or static IP.

      Codeberg mentions this: “On Codeberg you can develop your own Free Software projects,…”

      Does this imply developing commercial software etc is against their ToS?

        In general yes.
        Codebergs base software is forgejo, which is open source, developed by the company behind codeberg. It is generally wanted to deploy your own instance of forgejo to build commercial software.

        This is further supported by forgejos current progress to federate git servers with the fediverse standard. This would allow people on codeberg to open issues and pull requests on commercial instances.

          I’ve been waiting for that progress to materialise. Although I really want it to work, it has taken so long now that I doubt it is taken seriously and thus I start to doubt they will keep maintaining it once it does land.

          For most commercial software you don’t need federation though, so for most you can just spin up your own instance.

    Sometimes I forget there’s even a homepage, after months of never seeing it. Then I’ll need to login or something and see it and be like, “wtf is this? Did I go to the wrong website?”
