People love to shit on GitHub for their recent outages, turns out it's nontrivial to host a lot of software...
Yeah, you shouldn't use GitHub anyways (I have a paid account on sr.ht that I use for my stuff and I think it predates codeberg) but codeberg has some teething issues as well.
Anyhow, yes, if you depend on codeberg, you should consider donating
Ive found self hosting my own git server, the AI bots LOVE it. They hit every single git commit (because its a clickable link with code). And they almost never look at robots.txt. Ive had openai hit my server and mess it up a couple of times.
I added a couple of fixes before having to lock it behind a login screen. But now its harder for people to see my code....but it works for now.

Why doesn't the EU fund something like this?
Seems to be pretty important infrastructure for staying independent.
