..but this will realistically just spawn some new mirrors and proxies because the vast amount of projects hosted there definitely won't ever move away.
Anyway, I am doing my part! (With my irrelevant profile)
I wonder why people favor codeberg so much over things like gitlab. It has an ugly UI from ancient GitHub…
I was on GitLab for a time (and still keep the account for following stuff and maybe contributions), but felt it wasn't as free and community focused as I would have liked to, so I decided to move away and went to Gitea (the hosted instance), shortly after I discovered Codeberg which aligns with my ideals even more, so I went to try it and it stuck.
The UI isn't that bad in my opinion and it's more responsive than GitLab's, so I appreciate it.
Not to say that it's the perfect platform of course, at least not yet, I miss GitLab for the easy actions/CI and deployment of pages, but I'm hoping that Forgejo actions will land soon enough and make things better.
Note: recently I found out a userstyle that tries to modernize the UI by following a Material You-like interface called Gitea Modern, don't know if it's still holding up since it's been archived
Really gitlab went down the niche client path and no longer is a non Microsoft alternative? Sadge, at least I know about codeberg now.
No no, don't get me wrong, it very much still is, it's really great for what it is, but for my own purposes it's a bit too much maybe, and I never thought to come back also because I was, and still am, anticipating federation on Gitea/Forgejo, I didn't expect that GitLab would add that in as well, so now that'll be a moot point when the relevant merge requests do land
What does that mean
