Alternative to github for hosting portfolio pieces, personal projects, etc. ? (lemmy.world)

I don't need to self host a git server or anything like that. Just need a place I can link to in my CV with some code examples. Microsoft pushing their AI rubbish has been the final straw.

Codeberg is good

SourceHut is another option, both can be self-hosted.

It's good to have a Codeberg accout for sure, and to contribute there. One should note though that their services are only for projects under a free (libre) license. They don't really enforce that yet, I think, but it's sure good to know.

I think gitea (or gitlab) don't have such policies (although I don't know this for sure).

For example:

codeberg (even if is target of some DDoS by alt-right)
GitLab (but also American so under conditions of export compliance laws)
forgejo
gitea

Codeberg is the hosted application of self hosting forgejo.

The alt right sends DDoS attacks at codeberg? I'm out of the loop, why could they possibly want to do that?

For example:

I just installed a forgejo instance on my server for that purpose. It's the same software as behind codeberg.

A simple webpage should do

[-] omniman@anarchist.nexus 6 points 1 month ago

codeberg , git.gay , disroot.org have a git service

[-] orochi02@feddit.org 5 points 1 month ago

git.gay in the Portfolio? When applying for Jobs you gotta have a chill employer then lol

Funny domain names for hosting code is why godaddy exists.

I'm excited to submit my future CS assignments with

Ihatecode.com

My bad , did not see portfolio also their is git tea , gitlab and tchncs also host their own gitlab service but I think it's not reliable

[-] quickenparalysespunk@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 1 month ago

the OP explicitly said no need for git

[-] communism@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 month ago

They said they don't need to self host a git forge. Given that they were asking for alternatives to GitHub I think they did want a git forge of some kind.

If you just want a website you can send folks to, neocities is pretty neat. Not really code specific though, and you have to write it yourself or find a template

Are you looking to just replace GH Pages or Github altogether? netlify is a nice step up from GitHub Pages. Once integrated with github or gitlab it will autodeploy changes from whatever branch you tell it. As a bonus, you get preview links on every pull request before merging and rolling out to your live site.

I need a GitHub style host for my git projects. They are all toys and I don't write anything worth collaborating with me on! Anyway my current CV has my GH profile linked to it so that people can see at a glance that I have personal projects/toys and know a range of languages.

One thing I'm going to miss about leaving GH is that I've got a few commits in FOSS projects on there like the Gentoo Package Manager, although maybe I can follow them if they move.
