Codeberg is one of my favourite Git hosting services. It is (to me) what GitHub should have remained like. I have been mirroring most of my GitHub projects to Codeberg as well. Someday when I can afford the time, I might decide to make Codeberg my primary repository hosting service and GitHub the mirror.

If you haven't seen it already, Codeberg is seeking donations here: <https://docs.codeberg.org/improving-codeberg/donate/>. A good way to support a product you like rather than becoming the product yourself.

More power to them. But donations can’t possibly scale to the demand. They are already having significant capacity issues as evidenced to response time spikes throughout the week.

It’s a great hobby app, and the forgejo software seems well assembled, but Codeberg needs to be a bit more forthcoming about their capacity before more large projects move over.

I want to see larger projects like Gentoo migrate, but everything will come grinding to a halt if codeberg doesn’t come up with scalable resourcing (money & capacity)

In my opinion, for a Git forge, switching to any other main source of income would almost certainly lead to some form of enshitification
