Full transparency: I'm trying to build something similar at https://gopherworks.io https://gopherworks.io if anyone's interested in helping. I recently wrote an article for my own code hosting service where I talked a little about SourceHut and what makes it unique: - SourceHut follows a zero investor approach [1] - SourceHut's Principal Engineer, Drew Devault, prides himself in simple infrastructure [2] - Drew believes Mailing List Workflows are the way forward [3] - SourceHut is designed for accessibility first [4] [1] https://sourcehut.org/blog/2019-10-23-srht-puts-users-first/ https://sourcehut.org/blog/2019-10-23-srht-puts-users-first/ [2] https://sourcehut.org/blog/2020-04-20-prioritizing-simplitity/ https://sourcehut.org/blog/2020-04-20-prioritizing-simplitit...

SourceHut is an interesting concept and basically the equivalent of a built-at-home GitHub. It's based on Python (and now Go), runs on Alpine on baremetal in a datacenter in the US. Some of the above aren't just views for SourceHut though, they're more like a way of life. If you'd like to test that join the SourceHut channel on Freenode and ask if anyone has any reference for Dockerfiles or Kubernetes and see what response you get. SourceHut and other code hosting sites are popping up as a wave of programmers push for decentralization. Some may say that it's in response to youtube-dl, but this has been happening slowly for a while. If SourceHut isn't right for you there's always Codeberg which is essentially a Gitea instance backed by a non-profit in the EU.
