"Zig quits Github" is like two steps down from this on the front page: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46131406 :D
I mean, just disable the AI bloat features in GitHub. I’ve been using GitHub since 2010 (15 years - holy shit I am old) and it’s still the best. I never understood the mass complaining, though I give GitLab credit for building a massive company and taking it public. When GitLab launched I was like, this is going to fail as a business 100%. I was wrong. Edit: Funny enough GitLab is down 9% in pre-market and near all-t…
EDIT: here is one statement from Gitlab https://forum.gitlab.com/t/can-i-opt-out-from-my-code-being-...
I thinl I also saw another one
So when Codeberg gets famous what's to stop Microsoft or another behemoth from acquiring it and starting the whole cycle over again?
It is a non-profit association based in Berlin, and its very existence is a protest towards Microsoft and the other big actors in this space. And it is built on Forgejo, an open source project with a strong community around it. Both Codeberg and sourcehut are good options when escaping the walled gardens of Big Tech :)
It seems everything bug CI is back up. Congrats to Codeberg for having a real status page and not a made up one like AWS and many others.

Uptime Kuma is really nice: https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma
Supports all sorts of alerts and can even tell you if it ever looks like your TLS certs will soon expire (if any automation is broken, or you use commercial certs with manual rotation).

Didn't SourceHut go through the same issue? (Yes, I'm aware DDoS attacks are nothing new)
> At around 06:00 UTC on January 10th [2024], a layer 3 distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack began to target SourceHut’s PHL infrastructure. We routinely deal with and mitigate application layer (layer 7) DDoS attacks, however, a layer 3 attack takes place at a lower level and is not within our ability to mitigate without the assistance of our network provider.

why not sourcehut?
Unless you want to pay for the price increase and have no issue with the owner, then go for signing up for a sourcehut account.
> All users who host projects on SourceHut are expected to pay according to their means. choose the subscription plan most appropriate to your means — there is no difference between the subscriptions besides price.
Interesting approach and asking for some money upfront to cover the actual hosting costs and other stuff feels pretty good - rather than having to worry about shady monetization and about whether your data is the product.
There's plenty of screenshots on the main page of the UI: https://sourcehut.org/
Some people will enjoy that kind of minimalism, definitely not everyone's cup of tea - feels really fast and reminds me a bit of Kanboard, though.
No idea about owner, not my place to comment.
Let's see if anyone will pay for Codeberg after the migration from GitHub.

why not sourcehut?
Drew's direct engagement into tech cancel-culture (with targets such as DHH, RMS, Andreas Kling, Jack Dorsey), makes it difficult to do business with him (assuming hosted sourcehut service as an alternative to codeberg). Furthermore, at the newly proposed service rates it is much more liberating to self-host (any lightweight forge–including sourcehut).
I haven't followed closely; but the few times I did, it seemed that he had reasonably nuanced opinions translating into upholdable values, rather than overzealous cancel-fever, whether I agreed with his opinions or not. To me this is not reason enough to not use his product, and I happen to like his product (much more than the alternatives anyway).
Also, it would be remiss of me not to appreciate the irony that you're effectively suggesting "cancelling" his business over his opinions which you consider of a "cancelly" nature ...
