Gentoo closed out 2025 by publishing a comprehensive year-end report with two highlights that were mostly interesting. Here they are.

Among the most consequential developments, the project outlined plans to move its repository mirrors and contribution workflows away from GitHub to Codeberg, underscoring broader concerns about platform direction and tooling autonomy.

The proposed migration away from GitHub is motivated primarily by community resistance to features that could compel the use of proprietary tooling. Gentoo’s leadership has cited ongoing attempts by GitHub to push Copilot and related services as a factor in the decision to adopt Codeberg, a Forgejo-based hosting service.
