Sourcehut is not free, and officially "alpha". Relying on it doesn't seem better than relying on a free Netlify account, at least on paper.

- southerntofu 3y agoSourcehut is not free, but they public financial reports and have details about their economic model which seems very sustainable. As for being "alpha", it only shows how much the team cares about not making false promises which seems a lot better than relying on companies promising everything and unicorns delivered to your door. As for other services i've mentioned, they're not "free" either. They're usually free price (donation based) or ask for a fixed membership fee. Running things has a cost, but by going with a non-profit host you usually have better durability. sdf.org or marsnet.org have been running for over 20 years, can you say the same about any free offering by a startup ?
- remram 3y agoThe only other service you've mentioned is Codeberg, which is very much free. It is down right now though, which is definitely not a good sign.
