I was curious about your opinions (Not my article). Also this mentions Fossil & Pijul. Which are fully-fledged Git-Alternatives (Not just github)

You don't need git alternatives. git has nothing to do with fascistsoft. Please don't confuse a repo hosting service with the (FOSS) tools used thereon.

Alternative for github: codeberg.org

Alternative for github: codeberg.org

Why is that a bad thing ?

It is not a bad thing.

The comment claimed "alternative to GitHub". I pointed out that it's an alternative for only a subset of use cases/projects. Without that clarification, someone may explore or follow through and be disappointed.
