Jfc... I hate Microsoft so damn much.

Yeah, jwz is no joke.

I love that he's like "I co founded Netscape and Mozilla, now I run a dance club and pizzeria".

Dude's living the dream.

How is it I’ve never seen this? Loving MICROS~1

“I came up with the name Mozilla.”

“HTML in your email is probably my fault”

The guy who put a timebomb in his software because Debian shipped an older version.

Probably a gas to collaborate with.

He has good reasons, in my opinion.

I agree.

Time to move my lazy ass and finally do that migration I've been putting off.

What alternatives are you guys recommending? I've heard good things of Codeberg so far.

The best alternative is to selfhost forgejo (codeberg's backend) which is libre unlike gitea. If you don't have the hardware to selfhost, you can use codeberg itself.

I use Fossil (a DVCS that’s not Git-based) for most of my code. The main reason is that self-hosting (and keeping backups of) it is incredibly easy: One Fossil repository is one file. For those who absolutely require Git interaction for any reason, one-way mirrors are perfectly possible.

It depends on whether Git is a requirement. If it’s not, the infrastructure requirements for Forgejo are still higher than Darcshub or Fossil. If you’d like to have Git with a decent web interface, but you don’t absolutely need pull requests or whatever, Stagit is another lovely option.

I self host forgejo for my personal projects

I have not moved my open source stuff off gh.
