By all means, #movingtogitlab-dot-com does not solve the problem GitHub has (centralization), and moving to a privately hosted GitLab re-introduces the problem GitHub mostly solved (separation).
#GitPub is trying to solve this problem by defining a federation protocol for git services: https://github.com/git-federation/gitpub
If you're concerned about #Microsoft buying #GitHub (and you should be) please do not simply move to GitLab.com (the hosted #GitLab instance), it also runs on MS servers, (Azure) - always self-host GitLab, or if it's too heavy, go with Gitea.
Whatever you do, do not simply move from one silo to another.
If you want to see federation support in #gitea #gogs and #gitlab please upvote and comment on https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/1612 https://github.com/gogs/gogs/issues/4437 and https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/4517 to bring them to the attention of core developers #github #gitlab #git #gitea #gogs #microsoft

Als Update und v2 zu letztem Jahr habe ich auf der #GPN18 einen Vortrag über das Fediverse, Mastodon, und chaos.social gehalten, quasi einmal den Fortschrittsbericht. Da das VOC großartig wie immer ist, könnt ihrs euch jetzt schon anhören: https://media.ccc.de/v/gpn18-175-dezentrale-soziale-netzwerke-theorie-und-praxis

Isn't it ironic how the largest open source code platform (GitHub) is itself proprietary and closed source?
Default eelo mail application will be based on K9-mail. We have started to work on its UI to make it more attractive and simple
