GREAT! Finding out this toot is making me seriously think about finally packing up my stuff in #GitHub, and switching to a #Gitea instance, self-hosted via #Yunohost.
I know it is a lot to ask, but is there an ETA for the implementation of full federation?

Actually, I was considering to host a gitea instance for myself only, at tommi@git.tommi.space… is it a dumb idea?
@dachary @forgefed @techknowlogick @yunohost @fedeproxy @codeberg @gitea
Ok, take it as a too impulsive action, but I got a domain and I installed #Gitea on it.
In the next few days I will be migrating my repositories!

I will share my struggle in migrating and keep track of what I do, step by step, both on https://forum.fedeproxy.eu/t/migrating-from-github-to-self-hosted-gitea/ and on https://tommi.space/gitmi

Not at all.Having a local instance is also useful to me for some things, and its not very hard to setup or maintain. Having lived at extended times with no connectivity at all, it is also a useful stand-by.

I do like the idea of not having to master gitea just to use it, worry about updating, backups, etc, so there is clearly always an important role for things like codeberg. If federated gitea becomes more like mastodon, with instances formed around communities of common interests, that seems even better.

This is good to know. No worries, thank you very much. Sorry if I asked, but I am very impatient, even if I am not even a developer.
@yunohost @fedeproxy @forgefed @dachary @gitea @techknowlogick
Still, I am conflicted… should I self-host or should I rely on @codeberg?
If source code hosting eventually becomes federated, it will not make much of a difference, nevertheless, #Codeberg has a huge appeal. I don’t really know.
Any tips or suggestions? Articles I could read?
