From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Honestly, don't like any of them. Github is closed-source and lacks so many features compared to Gitlab. Gitlab, though opensource, makes you pay for every useful feature and is not fun to host. Gitea is an opensource clone of Github that also lacks Gitlab's features. SourceHut is unusable for me (mailing lists and
git send-mail? seriously?). Never used BitBucket and radicle (decentralised sourceforge) is still under heavy development with no CI.Optimal would be something with gitlab's features, decentralised, FLOSS, and unlocked when self-hosted. Maybe radicle will get there. They seem to be dog-fooding their solution and about a year ago were planning on CI. No idea where their roadmap disappeared to.
This!! Also why the heck they changed their website to be so much lamer and slightly broken on mobile, I still don't understand.
What do you think of Onedev? I rember it selling itself as the GitLab alternative, but I haven't tried since I can't self-host. Though checking it out again quickly right now, I'm very wary of it since it turned source-available with another "Enterprise" plan, uhhh
Wow, that actually looks quite interesting! The "source-available" license is indeed troublesome 🤔 They could pull a gitlab and lock a bunch of their stuff behind payment, but who knows. I'll also wait with testing it for now. But it's in my bookmarks!
Thanks
You got it!
