I always kept telling Free-software & OpenSource projects to move to GitLab, Codeberg or SourceHut

You cannot fight capitalists on a capitalists platform.

& if you want something that’s even more independent try Fossil

By what standard is GitLab not a “capitalist platform”? It feels even more corporatey than GitHub. From their homepage:

GitLab is the most comprehensive AI-powered DevSecOps Platform.

    Ok then use CodeBerg or SourceHut. Just anything that’s not GitHub

Codeberg is a non-profit that has no fees, but accepts donations. They only allow FOSS projects.

  Are you talking about Fossil ? Fossil’s commands are just like git’s & with the added benefit of having Github-in-a-box

    That’s a gimmick that doesn’t justify the costs of switching from Git (IMO)
    
    If you want decentralized collaboration features in git without using forge software, you can use mailing lists like the Linux kernel does.
