Codeberg Description
Codeberg serves as a platform for collaboration and git hosting, specifically designed for free and open source software, content, and various projects. It operates independently, relying on donations and contributions from users—consider becoming a member of the non-profit association Codeberg e. V. to support our goals and gain voting rights! All of our services are hosted on servers we manage, ensuring there are no external dependencies, third-party cookies, or tracking involved. Despite the invaluable contributions made by the Free and Open Source Software community, the landscape is dominated by commercial platforms that host the fruits of our collective efforts. This situation creates a contradiction, where countless volunteers dedicate their time to developing, collecting, and maintaining essential knowledge and software, which ultimately feeds into proprietary systems that are neither transparent nor accountable to the public. It is crucial to recognize this imbalance and strive for a future that prioritizes open access and community-driven initiatives.

An Amazing Non-Profit Alternative (But More Spartanic) Date: Oct 31 2022
Summary: Great and focused, if you got the right type of project (open-source) and can live with smaller featureset.
Positive: * Powered by a non-profit, so no weird enterprise-license locked features, no weird misuses like GitHub copilot, etc. Just less potential for shady things going on.
* Very simple and clean UI, especially compared to GitLab.
* Nice community.
* Free if your project is open-source, plenty opportunity to meet like-minded open-source developers.Negative: * Limited to open-source, although this is also a positive point if you're looking for like-minded people.

* Continuous Integration is just available as closed beta, no kubernetes or other advanced integrations, so it's a bit basic.
* Less proven and financially backed than the big players, so I suppose bigger risk that one day it goes under.
* Less great exploration and social features than GitHub, although they seem to be working on improving that (in Gitea, the software Codeberg uses).
