I'm undecided whether to move my git repos (not many really) from GitLab and GitHub to a (#YunoHost) self-hosted #Forgejo instance or not.

On one hand it'd be kinda neat.

On the other, I don't want to make the few contributors' lives more difficult and my niche projects even harder to find.

Also, might make sense to have a mirror somewhere in case my own server goes down. And then the question is again, where to mirror to and why not just use that instead.

Dilemma …

Thoughts very welcome!

@hook the point of Federation is that you shouldn't have to choose.

@evan, I know, and this was the idea behind Git in the first place, IIRC.

I know great improvements have been made to Forgejo since the forking and federation is sweet and all.

But how easy/practical is it in practice? Especially for those who are not me on my server.

@hook Yeah, I agree. I know that Gitlab has some ActivityPub features, but I don't know how well they work. It would be cool to see this expanded.
