Hi, Peter the Founder of Pushin.eu here. Sorry, the website escaped containment and landed on HN before I had the chance to update the "marketing materials" aka. landing page. So, here are a few points: *The product is stable, but still in development. That's why some of the core things like pricing, etc. are missing. BUT:* 1. Business Model: Pushin will have subscriptions for individuals and teams. Pricing is not ye…

> Pushin doesn't track anything beyond the obvious: email, password hash, username, whatever information you put on your profile This seems poorly worded or genuinely concerning. Why do you want to track my email, username or anything in my profile. What do you do with it? How do you track it?

"Track" means "store" here and we need to store it for authentication (email+password hash) and to show your public profile (e.g. https://pushin.eu/pjullrich). So, regular things, not tracking you for data mining stuff

https://codeberg.org/ also fits the description of "Git hosting that never leaves Europe".

Regardless of that, these don't seen to play for the same audience.

Codeberg Terms of Use[^0] makes it clear that it's only for "projects covered by a licence for free and open source software, free and open source hardware, or free cultural works", and "You must not share projects that mostly consist of code written by "generative AI"-tools". They also only provide private repos where the FOSS system need it for their infra or what not, and not just for any purpose.

These are totally fine for Codeberg to do, and it's wonderful for FOSS!!

However it is not a viable place for many projects that are on GitHub/GitLab now and would want to migrate, say: any commercial project, that would need "permission-free" private repos, or when the teams want to decided themselves how much generative AI their developers should use, not their Git-hosting provider...

So yeah, different ballpark.

The first amendment only protects non US citizens if they are inside the US, even when entering the US the protection is less strong.

When in the US it does not protect you from getting deported based on what you said.

Non American protestors inside the US have faced consequences for their actions, in the past.

To a degree that is perfectly sensible: You would not want foreigners to oppose you from inside.

Still, first amendment is of less importance to us outside the country.
