You’re not wrong, but unfortunately for now github is the best for reach and discovery, which may be important for these kind of projects.

Is it somehow possible to mirror a repo from say codeberg to github and get the best of both ? discoverability and long term autonomy from microsoft

As OP said, stars correlated with their own posting on Lemmy. So your affirmation is not absolutely true. It’s all relative… same applies to posting on reddit vs. lemmy… There’s a dilemma between popularity vs. a smaller niche population with ethical concerns.
In a similar vein, PRs might be more in quantity but less in quality when comparing any foss project on github vs codeberg…
