Honestly, since my switch to Codeberg, I've had nothing but problems. It's down way more than a git service should be. And when it's not down, it's slower than molasses. I'm regretting my switch, I may go back to using gitlab or spin up a gitea server.

@thelinuxcast I agree that there is a lot of down time, but don't forget that it is a small nonprofit that run it alongside a number of other services such as a hosted Woodpecker CI, Translate, Pages, etc.

The uptime has gotten better over time and although inconvenient when it happens, it's not usually for more than a few hours.

I have never experienced any slowness with Codeberg, but that might be because I'm using old hardware which is slow anyway.

@orbitalmartian I get it that they're small, and if it had just been once or twice, I'd be with you. But this happens once a month or more. Or so it seems. That's not okay, no matter how small you are. Not if you want people to rely on your service.

@thelinuxcast @orbitalmartian I've been indifferent about my use. I know some projects I want people to assist with and the majority of people gravitate to GitHub... I keep some personal things at Codeberg. It's the git auth issue that gets me every time, and having to call git push twice to re-authenticate again.

Furthermore, I've also thought about using a Gitea service locally, even if it's just for git mirrors of my remote repos at GitHub and Codeberg.

@thelinuxcast I would just spin your own Forgejo if you got the hardware, if it just for personal use , I wouldn't really see any downside after setting it up.

@thelinuxcast try https://codefloe.com/

It’s a managed Forgejo server with good performance and uptime.

@thelinuxcast Have you tried self hosting Forgejo? I am very happy with this setup. The main issue I had was with the environment vars, but once I figure it out it was simple to set things up as I intended

@tokenizer I've thought about it, but I do get the occasional contributor to some of my projects, and hosting it on a solo git repo would make that pretty hard; at least it seems like it would.
