Founder of GitLab battles cancer by founding companies

So, where do the cool kids host their code these days? I went to GitLab and saw “Finally, AI for the entire software lifecycle” – ok, I guess this means no GitLab for me. Codeberg then? Or something else?
Note: no, I’m not self-hosting. Yes, I know how to do it, I’ve been doing it for a decade. But I still won’t.
✅ Github Account closed before Apr 24 Data leaching.
Thankfully for me, only used for coms, no code, but feel for those poor sods who thought thier 'Private' repo was actually *private*
✅ Local Forgejo box replaces gitlab, up, running and backing up regularly.
It's lighter weight, *free* forever, not at risk of corporate buyout and subsequent #Enshitification, #leaching AI Training
Use #Forgejo instead, your future self will thank you.
