As an enthusiastic supporter of Lemmy, I am eager to contribute to the project. However, I hold strong reservations about writing a single line of code for a project hosted on a Micro$oft server. While I have created a few issues on GitHub, I firmly believe that my contributions could be significantly amplified if there were a mirror of Lemmy that utilized Forgejo hosting outside the United States. I would be absolutely delighted to have the opportunity to contribute more actively to this incredible project if such an alternative hosting option were available.

Even if Lemmy moved away from GitHub, you'd still be relying on GitHub a ton:

  • NPM is owned by GitHub which is owned by Microsoft
  • TypeScript, the language that the UI is made out of, is made by Microsoft
  • The Rust crate index and a lot of the crates are hosted on GitHub
