I'm really curious how other codeforges are faring. I only use codeberg and github - codeberg seems to have less outages, especially for a much smaller organisation, but they've recently removed support for LLM projects which could be linked.
Anyone here have data on whether the likes of gitlab have been impacted in the same was as github?
- sznio 2mo agomy personal forgejo instance has had 100% availability for the last two years.
- spockz 2mo agoSo it has run on a server that hasn’t had updates in 2 years? And it itself hasn’t been updated in 2 years?
- cyberax 2mo agoYou can run it in an HA configuration with multiple servers and live updates.
- spockz 2mo agoYes. And the same for the database and then you get it into “professional” territories with more moving parts that can also fail and take 3 hours to figure it out and recover.
- cyberax 2mo agoYup. It's kinda binary: either almost no downtime for years with a crazy number of nines, or a total mess for several days while people figure out the issues. That being said, a Git forge for a small/mid-sized company is not something that requires rocket surgery. Forgejo with an SQLite database and a daily backup to S3 would be more than enough for the majority of users.
- forgejojoj 2mo agoThe key is that maintenance is done on your own terms, and thus it's available when you need it.
- koalp 2mo agoI love codeberg but it also have outages and is sometimes quite slow. But I’m more lenient with codeberg because they are a non-profit and as you say, they are banning vibe-coded project because of the cost to infrastructure. In the meantime, GitHub is encouraging vibe-coding, multiplication of the source code, and genAI discussions.
