> Codeberg is a German-based nonprofit organization, and it’s hard to imagine going wrong with this choice.

I like what they're doing, however Codeberg's 14 day uptime is _97.05%_. I've heard from many that downtime is normal there, and is worse than GitHub (which is already... bad). This makes them a non-starter imo, until that improves.

With the current trend of things going down all the time, the best way to compete is just to be available.

One neat bit with Codeberg however is because they're using (actually developing) Forgejo (a Gitea fork which itself is a Gogs fork) you can easily clone the entire thing locally or on your own VPS to have as a backup.

Forgejo is even trivial to set up as it is a single self-contained binary you can throw somewhere and it'd work.
