In case GitHub starts taking down yuzu repos, I recently came across Radicle. It's an open source, P2P GitHub alternative where repos are hosted and seeded on peoples locally running nodes

Here's where you can get started: https://app.radicle.xyz/

If anyone who has the repo wants to host it locally and then share the rad: id so others can help seed it, that would be great!

We really need a source code hosting and collaboration platform that can't be traced to one person.

Git works with i2p

Yeah I know. But then again there is still one server that has torun the code hosting and collaboration platform even if the interface is over i2p. There will be a single point of failure.

I was assuming each Dev would maintain a local copy too but your point is an important one.

as mentioned in the other comment, this entire thing is sketchy as hell -- from cryptobros to the ghetto install that would get a first-year laughed at, it's just bad. It's bad from bad by bad.

Be wary.

P2P source hosting sounds like a good idea. I am onboard with this.

Honestly just host a gitlab instance outside of the US, Nintendo can only come after you when your an area they have power.

-- A wild Codeberg appeared. --

Codeberg is a collaboration platform providing Git hosting and services for free and open source software, content and projects.

Website: Codeberg.org

The organization selected the European Union for their headquarters and computer infrastructure, due to members' concerns that a software project repository hosted in the United States could be removed if a malicious actor made bad faith copyright claims under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

Wikipedia: Codeberg e.V.

In June 2022 the Software Freedom Conservancy's "Give Up Github" campaign (in response to the GitHub Copilot licensing controversy) promoted Codeberg as an alternative to GitHub.

I've benn following radicle for quite some time. Maybe this is really the right opportunity to pay them a visit again.
