I keep basically all of my shit on Gitlab, so depending on who they sell it to, that might be a goodbye. I've really enjoyed the platform, but if it goes into hands of either some clueless business people, data aggregator, or "AI-first" bullshit, i'm migrating to something else.
You shouldn't wait because it's going to happen. I moved all of my projects off of Github and Gitlab, and now self-hosting my own gitea instance. It's been great and never looked back!
Btw gitea has been involved in some shit, most of the Devs quit and created Forgejo. AFAIK you can seamlessly switch from gitea without needing to completely reset it.
Oh wow, I didn't know that! Is there any official statement? Search didn't turn up anything. I guess I don't necessarily need to know exactly how it went down, but I wanna be nosy. :D
