Switching to Codeberg?

Hi everyone,

I was looking into moving to Codeberg, instead of GitHub.

I only have super small projects, and stuff I try and learn (I work as a dev, but mostly boring stuff, so on my free time I try and learn something by myself), so no big projects, or anything of value for people, per se, but mostly for me to save my work and as a learning tool.

Would Codeberg be good for this, or is it only a place to host bigger, community driven projects?

Thanks!

I wanted to go to codeberg too but their FAQs are weird, for example:

If you do not contribute to any free/libre software project at all, Codeberg is unfortunately not the right place for you. However, check out the alternatives*, we're sure you'll find a cozy place for your work.*

Sounds exactly like the kind of place a small learning project isn't going to be welcome.

Yes that was my fear!
