Is there no git hosting service left that isn’t pushing censorship and fascism? I think I should just start self-hosting at this point.

    I dislike Codeberg’s decision.
    But I would not even think of calling it fascism or censorship.

    I just dislike it.
    So, I move on.

    And due to the fact that I do not like to run into the next dead end, I decided to self host my repositories now. The only way to be assured that tha rules do not ever change in a way that I do not like.
    Yes, the overhead is substantial.
    It’s the trade off I chose and accept.

      It’s the trade off I have chosen now as well, but it is annoying that only people with funds and technical expertise to self host are the ones that can bypass censorship. Freedom of speech, which includes code, should be a fundamental human right belonging to all–not just rich tech bros.

      I hope to remove these barriers as much as I can, so I wrote a blog post on setting this up!
