I just moved from github to vodeberg then to my own self hosted forgejo on hetzner. I may wait awhile and then try yours.

Is your code safe on hetzner though? I wanted to do something similar but I'm hesitant about what hetzner employees can see on the machines so I don't know how private and safe it would be to store code there.

Your website seems to conflate "Europe" with the EU. Can you clarify, here and on the website, whether the data remains: * in _EU member state_ sovereign territory * in _European states'_ sovereign territory * on the contentinent of Europe or some combination of the above? I am specifically wondering about: * Out-of-Europe territories of European states. * UK, Norway, Russia, Switzerland, Serbia etc.

The FAQ seems clear on this > Where is my code actually hosted? > On bare-metal servers that we operate in Scaleway's Paris datacenters

That could change at any time. They could move to an Italy datacenter owned by a different company and that would be just fine.

But whether they're making a promise to stay in the EU specifically? Or whether they might expand to territories that aren't physically in Europe? That could matter, and the FAQ doesn't tell us.

(And yeah the line at the top says 100% EU but that's not the full picture.)

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.

How can I get invited to try it out?

In Europe people generally use “Europe” and the EU interchangeably. I’m not sure many people would include Russia in Europe in normal speech, unless they were a geographer in which case Russia is partly “Europe” in some cases I think. Even when the UK was part of the EU if someone in the UK said “Europe” they meant continental Europe and someone in continental Europe would be unlikely to mean the UK if they said Euro…

> In Europe people generally use “Europe” and the EU interchangeably. In Europe some people generally and incorrectly use "Europe" and the EU interchangeably. Europe existed far before the EU and will continue to exist after the EU finally comes to an end.

I think you maybe missed my footnotes.

Even if you did/did not, vernacular evolves. So at the time that you fervently hope the EU comes to its (clearly deserved, Mr Putin) end, I imagine people will be able to adapt their wrong speak and clearly incorrect thinking to ensure they adhere to the newspeak.

OK! Your generalisation definitely beats mine.

I guess you don't wander out of your office in Brussels much.

I hope they also have a backup outside Paris.

> I say "we" but it's really only me (Peter Ullrich, peterullrich.com) and my dog (Bella, Labrador, beige) Is there an EU law about a "dog tax" when you've mentioned the dog? Perhaps there should be. Ps - I'm kidding. Mostly. I like dogs and cats. Frequently, more than people.

Of course the Germans have a dog tax, how could they not?

Oh sweetheart. The real looney Eurocrats like us don’t even leave Strasbourg. Brussels is filthy.
