while @Codeberg is great if you can't selfhost, but having an at-home backup forge is always super useful.

I don't think it is bad for each project to host their own code... no risk of takedowns!

@gbraad @hexaheximal @lupyuen I'd say that it's always best to have a backup plan at hand and not to exclusively rely on other peoples' computers.

Self-hosting (Forgejo also has a nifty "push mirror" feature that lets you push to Codeberg, too!) or combining different tools based on what you need (e.g. SourceHut's CI instead of our Forgejo Actions and Woodpecker - as part of an "all-in-one package") is something that aligns with our goals, both philosophically and practically. ~n

@gbraad @hexaheximal @lupyuen Of course, there's many situations where self-hosting your own infrastructure might not be practical or feasible, and that's what we are here for. :D ~n

@Codeberg @hexaheximal @lupyuen

right. I am in a place where Internet connectivity has an extra firewall that I do not control. sometimes githubvua unreachable, so using this push mirror and mirroring itself is a godsend to me when I do not wanna bother with rerouting things.
