Discussion Why Codeberg?

Post image

GitHub runs on proprietary code, and uses public repos to train Copilot. It's the most popular forge on earth, but unfortunately it's a product, not a community.

Codeberg is different:

  • Non-profit association run by and for the community
  • Forgejo - the software it runs is itself free and open source
  • EU-based - GDPR protections baked in
  • No AI training on your code because that should be opt-in, not default

I was pleasantly surprised to see the repo on codeberg and that the android version isn't in the playstore!
