“I moved my code from #GitHub to a self-hosted #Forgejo. Not because of the outages, but because of who owns what runs on top of them. The Dutch government just made the same call.” By ✍️: @jorijn #git #autonomy #code #inControl https://jorijn.com/en/blog/leaving-github-for-forgejo/

@wlaatje@social.edu.nl @jorijn@toot.community I've been hosting a forgejo too since abput one year and a half. Very happy with it! Make sure to disable registrations though, you're gonna get spam otherwise :(

@wlaatje@social.edu.nl Maybe I use this bank holiday to finally do the same despite being a developer like Joris here - but I don't want to train anything even with my smallest snippets. Thanks for the ignition, @jorijn@toot.community ! 🚀

@wlaatje@social.edu.nl Just of pure curiosity, why did you choose Forgejo instead of Codeberg for your project? 🤔😉 @jorijn@toot.community #GitHub #Forgejo #git #autonomy #code #inControl
