I have migrated all my source codes from GitHub to Codeberg.
Codeberg is a community-driven software development platform operated by Codeberg e.V., a non-profit association based in Berlin, Germany. I am a supporting member of this association. The platform is based on Forgejo, a Gitea fork.
Three of my projects remain fully mirrored on GitHub:
You can continue to open issues and pull requests there. All my other projects are now archived on GitHub, and the development takes place on Codeberg.
You can also log in via GitHub and GitLab there, so you should have no problem with continuing to send me bug reports and pull requests. You don't need a separate account to do this.
I did not make the decision to move to Codeberg lightly. There are two main thoughts that made me do it.
-
The recent history of the former Twitter platform showed me how fragile a social network can be when it is under the control of a commercial company. I deliberately chose the federated platform Mastodon as my new home because it is not owned and operated by a single company. As a non-profit association, Codeberg is also owned by the community.

I am deeply concerned about the recent events in the US following the inauguration of Donald Trump. Therefore, I want to reduce my dependence on US-based commercial platforms as much as possible. I prefer to act in time rather than having to react when it's too late.
