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.

Setting up Forgejo is not complicated, but of course this varies per person.

The 3D view is a nice gimmick, having a stable and secure VCS is more important to me.

But how can community fork possibly be on par with funded developers?

No experience with Gitea, expect it to be as stable as can be.

But... Forgejo is a fork, got some nice improvements and is and will be opensource. Gitea is 'for profit '
