I've been self hosting but various projects have moved to codeberg. I like Savannah as it's more old-school but it's a bit selective about projects.
- Codeberg
- sourcehut
- radicle
- self hosted
Isn’t radicle attached to some crypto nonsense?
Edit: I felt bad saying this and then not confirming it, so here you go: https://x.com/radicle/status/1483497327545495555 (I also feel bad about linking to that cesspool, but that’s where the announcement was).
You could self-host GitLab, though if you're looking for exposure it's probably not the best.
I deleted my 13 year old Reddit account and I am so glad I did. They started banning me for the most ridiculous things. I am very vocal about the Israeli genocide and just using the word genocide, was enough for them to temporarily ban me. They follow a zionist agenda and they censor voices that are against genocide. I don't have to talk about Spez, everyone already knows what type of person he is.
My last ban was for "Fostering and promoting race based hate and violence".
My comment resulting in the ban, I believe was "Fuck ICE and anyone who aids that white supremacist gestopo. Fight them via any and all means necessary".
I appealed, and the ban was upheld.
You didn’t say a wrong word. On the same hand they allows WorldNews and Conservative scum to facilitate hate and incite violence. Reddit deserves to die.
Apparently, ICE is "all white people" I guess.
i selfhost gitlab for my own use. its similar to github, but is a bit of a resource hog and the project tracking is a bit wonky to use. i have heard gitea is really low resource usage, but has fewer features.
We run self-hosted versions of both Gitlab (ce and enterprise versions) and Gitea.
They're very different things, but broadly what you say is correct. Gitea is lighter, it comes as a single binary and is really fast in operation. For most people, most of Gitlab's featureset will never be used.
Keeping them up to date:
Gitlab has repos for most distros, so updating is really just letting it update alongside the OS. But it does that every two weeks and is very noisy about reminding all users the second that a new release has dropped. (So I get a bunch of emails about this critical new release) Features seem to change quite often.
Gitea has no repos, and doesn't self-update. However, I've written a script that checks and if it's a new version, then it'll download the new version and replace the single binary.
Both are pretty reliable at not introducing breaking changes when updating, I've not had many issues.
What's up with GitHub?
While it has already been owned by micrsoft for a few years, the github ceo has now stepped down, leading to fears that it's going to enshittify even more.
