Are there initiatives like Codeberg but with a GitLab instance instead? I want to migrate to something that is not gitlab.com but I need to use GitLab CI (with my own runner of course)

Argh there really should be a standard for federating repos, then I would just self-host this and people could contribute from remote servers

@Matter I also considered Codeberg after reflecting more on the fact GitLab isn't truly open source (and certainly not FOSS)

@syntax tbh, I really dislike gitlab, it's slow, super slow. But their CI is pretty great and easy to use... and at least you can self-host it

@Matter You could just implement the git protocol. Git's federated by default: https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-on-the-Server-The-Protocols

@Matter I should rephrase that. I meant that GitLab isn't entirely open. It's open for the free tier, but this doesn't include a lot of other features people need. Just recalling what I heard recently on a podcast. To be honest, I'm still in the process of weighing up the options

@Matter for a gitlab instance thats not gitlab.com: git.tchncs.de maybe.. for selfhosting i found #gitea really awesome!

@Matter Certainly better than GitHUb in terms of openness etc.

@wizzwizz4 git isn't the issue, the stuff around it like PRs and CI and issues, etc. And I need something people can actually use without learning a new (or old 😉) paradigm

@wizzwizz4 that's not something can actually use, like it or not... I'd love to live in a world where that's the way things are done though 🤷

@Matter That's what I'm trying to build here https://sorcia.org - Users from any instance can make a PR - Users from any instance can be added to a repo member of any other instance. - Likewise for issues - Follow and boost.That is the social features, I'm going so far. And I need to keep that as simple as possible rather than getting it bloated with many social features which would make the interface noisy.I'm trying my best and I'm planning to provide some important updates here.

@Matter @wizzwizz4 @yarmo There's some development for such a standard based on ActivityPub called #ForgeFed: https://forgefed.peers.community/

@Matter @wizzwizz4, there is also git send-email (https://git-scm.com/docs/git-send-email) if you go that way. That's what sr.ht uses to contribute but I feel it's not very user friendly.Hard to comment on a specific line, must use plain-text email otherwise your message is not accepted, etc. All of these are barriers to allow new user entry.

Hosted GitLab without gitlab.com, and only the free software version of GitLab, then https://framagit.org/ is probably the most well-known host.
