Has anyone compiled a list of where projects are moving to? I know many linux desktop applications are self hosting on gitlab, but i’ve also seen gitea and codeberg. If anyone has opinions about a preference, do comment. I have been enjoying self hosting gitea for my simple personal projects and for deploying simple web apps, all on $5 vps.
Forgejo at least has plans for federation so that'd be my pick.
I would expect Gitlab and Codeberg to be the most likely destinations depending on how FOSSy a project is.
I heard someone mention "Tangled" earlier today too which might be new? Unsure. Seems to be an attempt at a federated version control platform.
It would be cool if there was a sort of linktr.ee for git hosting, so I could could search for a repo and it would tell me what platform its on, if there are any mirrors, etc.
ah webrings.
it's all come full circle now...
