codeberg might be a little slower on git cli, but at least it's not becoming a weekly 'URL returned error: 500' situation...

I rarely successfully get Codeberg URLs to load. Which is sad because I actually would very much like to recommend it but I find it unreliable as a source. That being said, GitHub is Microsoft now, known for that Microsoft 360 uptime.

  I have never had this issue. IIRC Codeberg has a matrix community, they are a non-profit and they would absolutely love to hear your feedback of them. I hope that you can find their matrix community and join it and talk with them Actually here you go, I have pasted the matrix link to their community, hope it helps https://matrix.to/#/#codeberg-space:matrix.org https://matrix.to/#/#codeberg-space:matrix.org

I mean, this isn't a 'URL returned error: 500' situation for anything that Codeberg provides considering this is an issue with Copilot and Actions.

  Except actually it was, that was what my git client was reporting trying to run a pull.

    I'm going to trust the constant stream of updates from the company itself which shows exactly what went down and came back up rather than a random anecdote.

      I only found this post because I decided to check HN after getting HTTP 500 errors pulling some repos.

      If you look at the incident details it also claims most services were impacted. > Git Operations is experiencing degraded availability. We are continuing to investigate. https://www.githubstatus.com/incidents/n07yy1bk6kc4 https://www.githubstatus.com/incidents/n07yy1bk6kc4

      Recent years have shown this to be the wrong prediction strategy. The reason seems to be an incentive imbalance where there are quite a few reasons for companies to lie (including their own CLAs) and not a lot of repercussions for doing so (everybody competes on lock-in, not on product). Of course, the word-of-mouth approach is also exploitable by dishonest actors, but thus far there doesn’t look to be a lot of exploitation going on, likely because there’s little reason to bother (once again, lock-in is king).

      This seems intelligent, after all companies are incapable of making errors in reporting and also have absolutely no incentive to lie about stuff like that. Those 500 errors others have reported as experiencing must have just been the wind.

I mean... you understand the scale difference right?

These days it feels like people have simply forgotten that you could also just have a bare repository on a VPS and use it over ssh.

  Most developers don’t even know git and GitHub are different things…

I used to use codeberg 2 years ago. I may have been ahead of my time.
