Hello, I was thinking of moving all my open source projects here. Anyone have any opinions? Excuse the post if this has been discussed previously, I was unable to find anything directly relating to peoples opinions on using it.

Edit: Lots of great discussion going on here! Thanks to everyone who contributed! I wasn't sure before but now I am set on moving all my projects over. The fact that it will be federated makes it even more appealing given that github is now requiring phone numbers and other personal information in order to create an account on their site.

I selfhost a forgejo instance, which is the underlying framework for codeberg (and they maintain forgejo).

Federation is in the works, they say.

If i was going to have any projects public, this is where i would do it.

Newbie here, what is the difference between code berg and forgejo?

[–] Flipper@feddit.de 0 points 8 months ago

Codeberg is the hosted forgejo instance from codeberg E.V. Codeberg ev also forked gitea 2022 and spearheads the development of forgejo

I also selfhost forgejo and im really happy with it. (I moved from GitLab.) Personally I cant wait for federation (which GitLab is also working on). If it were so be implemented, then ppl could actually contribute so projects on selfhosted git servers, which I am really looking forward so.

If you're looking for collaboration or audience I'd stay with github. It's too prevalent to skip for alternative niche with account signup and that elsewhere as a barrier.

If that's no concern to you it's viable.
