Why is sourcehut not mentioned (or at least, less often) than the usual alternatives whenever Github is down? Lack of astroturfers?

- BrunoBernardino 5mo agoI guess that's because it's paid and a slightly different kind of forge, more minimal (no PRs or MRs, but git email patches, for example). I'm a happy paying customer of SourceHut.
- maxloh 5mo agoNo. It is 100% open source, not even open core like GitLab. I think the reason is that it has no public-facing instance with unlimited CI usage.
- BrunoBernardino 5mo agoSorry, I didn't meant to say that it's paid in opposition to being open source (it is AGPL- and BSD-licensed). You can self-host, but in the context of a cloud offering (what's talked about when GH is down), SourceHut is paid.
