A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Is there some drama I'm not aware of here?

Forgejo is a reactionary fork of Gitea, started because the creator of Gitea founded a company to maintain it.

Secretly behind the backs of the official community council and not many months later started to turn Gitea into an open-core product.

And they also demand a CLA from contributors now, which is directly against the idea of FOSS.

I was a bit sceptical about the justification of this fork in the beginning as well, but time has proven the Forgejo team to be sadly completely right.

And they started sending advertisement emails to people who registered on gitea.com.
