Right - I see the other topic has been locked / author hasn't returned to follow community rules.

Here's the original topic https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49003386

and a measured (IMHO) response to it. (BTW, do your self a favour and change tabs with that site open :)

https://xn--gckvb8fzb.com/i-regret-migrating-to-codeberg/

It's a tough spot, Codeberg has found themselves in and I wish them luck. But beyond that, this is (yet) another reminder that in 2026, if you don't self host it, the cloud is just someone else computer

OOTL Wasn't there something about forgejos capabilities to federate? I had the impression, that it would go the fediverse route with many interacting instances. Then everyone can make their own rules. There are many reason to moderate repos. So why is this such a big thing (if forgejo federates as I remembered from the back of my head)?

Because Codeberg is its own charity type thing they have a cohort of users that vote on decisions made and you cannot even see how they came to that decision because that area is restricted to them. Presumably they might not federate at all.

Response guy seems to think that "legitimate crypto" is a thing.

My SSH keys are legitimate crypto. Fake money for criminals is not legitimate.

Acronyms, initialisms, abbreviations, contractions, and other phrases which expand to something larger, that I've seen in this thread:

Fewer Letters More Letters
DNS Domain Name Service/System
Git Popular version control system, primarily for code
SSH Secure Shell for remote terminal access

3 acronyms in this thread; the most compressed thread commented on today has 7 acronyms.

Yeah I stopped putting anything on codeberg and finished moving to sourcehut after they announced this. I'm stuck with Github due to work but policing whatever random repos I have and want source control is a bit of a dick move.

I have a local forjejo which replicates certain repos to Codeberg and others to Github. Now I have to adjust my integration.
