check out SourceHut otherwise Codeberg is good too
codeberg seems to be working well for me. i got too many cloudflare captchas with gitlab.com.
same for me, codeberg works quite well. no issues at all in comparison to github. slowly moving my code over.
can’t access any GitHub repositories without having to sign in. This is becoming frustrating.
Yes... also can't search.
This is supposed to be OPEN source yet, enshittification by Microsoft here goes down its inexorable path. It started nicely then slowly but surely popular features are blocked behind restrictions, unpopular features are shoved down people through, more marketing is used to try to convince users are actually wrong, etc.
Please, do leave the platform and help others to do so.
I'm using a selfhosted forgejo but in case something goes wrong with that, everything is also mirrored to sr.ht (which has a shit GUI if you are liking github/lab).
Gitea : light and selfhosted
Nah, use Forgejo,
https://forgejo.org/compare-to-gitea/
Forked from Gitea when they went full for-profit
Edit: Forgot to mention, Codeberg is a non-profit hosted instance of Forgejo, so you might already be using it
Shit, I didn't know that 😞
All good, I was using gitea until I recently found out about forgejo. Plus they have a good migration guide if you’d like to switch 🙂
Yep, running my own instance for years now.
To be fair though Gitea is by default much lighter than alternatives... because it's also minimalist. There are but default no runners, no testing environments, etc that e.g. Gitlab provides.
+1 for Gitea.
I recently set it up on a raspberry pi that was/is sitting mostly idle, in a docker container :)
Codeberg is great in my experience, but my usage isn't very intensive, so I can't speak for its speed if you push it.
GitLab SaaS and CE (self hosted) are both good options. Self hosted would obviously rely on whatever your server can do. SaaS has been very consistent. I mostly enjoy it for the CI/CD that is provides.
Forgejo (what codeberg uses) can be selfhosted too
Beat me to it
Hosting a Gitlab for work and for my private projects I agree. The CI/CD is excellent and I really like the way they handle issues and merge-requests. Gitlab is great but quite a beast, so throw some good CPU and storage at it.
Is there a big cost with self-hosting, like bandwidth or storage, or is it generally fine?
Any shitty old laptop can self host any git service as long you only have a single or handful of users.
It's usually the storage costs that will get you if you store large files with GitLFS. Otherwise it's fairly light with the git repos and container image version persistence.
If you do plan on storing containers, you might want to enable the container purge.
Rocketgit is extra fast
