And another reason to not use GitHub for new projects anymore and working on migrating older projects away from it.
Codeberg is good for open-source projects.
I don’t think they allow non-open-source except by special permission.
But why would you publicly host code of closed-source software?
The point is that people who privately host projects on GitHub might expect to be able to do the same on a GitHub alternative.
Also, some people use GitHub for non-open-source projects with public code. (Remember, open-source has a specific meaning; merely publishing your code in public view does not make it open-source.)

This strengthens my point even more.
I don’t see any point that could be strengthened. All I see from you above is a question.
If you say so.
So mind telling us mere mortals what your point is, then?
Just asking why anyone would want to publicly host the repo for a closed source project isn’t a point – it’s just you not understanding the reasons for doing that, and just because you personally don’t understand something doesn’t mean there’s no valid reason to do it.
Unity publishes some source code for reference purposes only. It is not open source, just made public.
where would you recommend going? i can self host but would like somewhere that can be monitored by cloudflare for rebuilding of static pages, etc.
I’d either selfhost a Forgejo instance (which I already do) or use Codeberg (which I also do). The Cloudflare thing for selfhosting is something you need to set up on your own, though.
I mostly use flare when I don’t want to host a static site that’s going to get hammered or penned. I used to traefik stuff at home. but lately I just use wireguard then hit things “locally.”
Why not Codeberg?
i’ll look them up. just curious for options.
Seconding codeberg. Framagit also
codeberg looks solid. when i can afford a sub, I’ll 100% give them a try for a year.
Subscription is optional. You can use Codeberg for free if you want.
oh! then i don’t know what I saw signing up re active members etc. Will look again. thanks!
I use codeberg as well as a self-hosted local forgejo for backups. On codeberg, lots of people use woodpecker-ci to automate building static pages but I just manually build with jekyll
Selfhosted forgejo with something like woodpecker ci. We’re playing a game of hot potato, with the way these services are getting worse and worse, so it’s easier to jump ship early, and just be happy
You can setup a Forgejo Action that deploys the site using Cloudflare Wrangler. Codeberg uses Forgejo, and GitLab CI/CD should work too.
If Wrangler is too hard I think there’s a webhook thing, but I’m not too sure.
thanks!
what is the use case for cloudflare?
is it still self hosting if you use an external service like that?
cloudflare is not self hosting. it is however a simple place to have a page / worker on a free plan that watches a github repo and on changes does a pull and does a ci step like an install of a vue3 app. it then serves the app on a domain. so I can spin up a test vue3+ts app and know I can share it with the public. so like a personal homepage or something simple.
knowing a bad actor won’t be thinking “flandish self hosts if I can break into site’s IP I can assume he also self hosts good stuff”
at the worst a bad actor will ddos a free plan page on cloudflare which can handle it.
thanks for the detailed answer!
I give them a year before they piss off the dev community.
Who are you so generous?
Hey, I wanna be right, you know? :D
People said the same when Microsoft acquired GitHub. Didn’t happen then, won’t happen now.
Well… Couldn’t the reason it didn’t happen then because because GitHub was somewhat isolated from Microsoft?
They already pissed people off, using OSS code for training AI models without people’s consent.
Reminder, @chaoticnumber, revisit this comment in a year.
I guess he chose “get out”
Someone who gets the fucking context.
The fact they aren’t replacing him is perfection.
At first it kind of seemed like Nadella might be a decent caring steward for Microsoft. Now it seems a lot more like he’s just relentlessly focused on profits at the cost of all else.
Microsoft eliminating independence from companies they bought has almost never gone well. I don’t understand why they keep trying.
He’s still a CEO. The bottom line for shareholders is always the primary goal.
Not really “exclusive”. This news is all over the Internet today. I don’t know why news outlets do this. No one cares if it’s “exclusive” or not.
I don’t know why news outlets do this.
Cause click-bait. Also, very likely, because the term has been abused with such frequency that AI headline generating tools are slapping it on posts with abandon.
No one cares if it’s “exclusive” or not.
In theory, long-form interviews and other deep-dive investigative journalism offer a more comprehensive look at an individual or event. And so an “exclusive interview” is noteworthy because it provides so much more content to the subscriber.
In practice, the term’s been flogged to death for so long and so routinely abused that it has lost all meaning. So “no one cares” because nobody trusts the signal that the headline prefix is supposed to convey.
Just use AI in place of the CEO.
LLMs steal their code from GitHub like everyone else.
