I Migrated My Blog from GitHub Pages to Codeberg Pages. And This Is Just the Beginning.

This will be a short post. As the title says, you’ll already be seeing this article from my site hosted on Codeberg.

I’m slowly migrating to Codeberg because there’s a feature of Forgejo (the software that powers Codeberg) that really catches my attention - the possibility that ForgeFed will be implemented and code repository hosting can be decentralized.

This is how collaboration between repositories and open source projects should have been from the beginning. Being able to interact between instances rather than having a single entity control the destiny of open source. Let alone them forcing the adoption of technologies (AIAIAIA) that instead of increasing productivity, are generating the opposite.

There are also ethical concerns that worry me about hosting my code on GitHub (and that of others) - that they use this code to train AI without consent and without respecting the licenses of each project, and that it will only generate benefits for Microsoft but not for the authors of the code they used to train their models.

How beautiful would a federated code collaboration model be, where each organization or individual has their own node and from there they can collaborate with the rest of the world.

To set up your site on Codeberg Pages, you can use this post.
