On: I regret migrating to Codeberg

[layer8]

What are these plentiful alternatives? SourceHut also comes with “personal baggage”.

[Zambyte → layer8]

Just host your own git server, it's an afternoon project. Use other forges as mirrors.

[gregdaniels421 → Zambyte]

Forgejo is pretty crazy easy to setup if you have a server with some storage already. It can be set to lock out people by default

[layer8 → Zambyte]

I have been self-hosting Gitea since long before Forgejo existed, but I understood the parent to be talking about third-party hosting with a FOSS community around it.

[48terry → layer8]

No one's guaranteed to third-party hosting or communities. The software is there. Host it.

If no third-party or community wants to take you in, then I suppose you're going to have to start one for like-minded people. If there aren't any, then I suppose you've lost the marketplace of ideas.

Isn't that how this is supposed to work?

Gitea is china-ware that doesn’t share values with most FOSS.

[inigyou → Zambyte]

if you have ssh access to a server, setup is as easy as

    ssh user@host
    mkdir myproject
    git init --bare myproject

Done.

The remote URL is user@host:myproject (relative to user home dir) or user@host:/home/user/myproject (absolute path)

[Zambyte → inigyou]

That works for private repositories, but public facing ones require a little more than that.

[ErroneousBosh → layer8]

  docker run data.forgejo.org/forgejo/runner:12 forgejo-runner

I thought this was supposed to be a site for hackers? Apply some Hacker Nature to the problem.

[gregdaniels421]

Is there a another platform with more users/better quality users?

[nekusar → gregdaniels421]

lobste.rs

Hn without the VC taint

There is Radicle for completely distributed hosting.

[Hendrikto → layer8]

It really is a shame Drew is so opinionated and dogmatic.

I like most of his work, but his politics make Source Hut too shaky of a foundation to build on.

[inigyou → Hendrikto]

Amuses me that Codeberg and Sourcehut have the same naming scheme. What's next - SLoCbarn? Header Haven? Function City?

Repohaus

ssh server git init --bare repo.git && git clone server:repo.git
