How about migrating to Codeberg?

As a dev I began migrating all my repos from GitHub to Codeberg about a year ago and it’s been a good experience. Not painless, but not hard for my use cases (which aren’t all trivial).

Codeberg is a non-profit where all users have a say in decisions and members who pay about 60 Euro (I think) get to vote: where ethics matter, and users matter.

GitHub is owned by Microsoft where we can readily see the priorities and the steady move from user oriented to whatever serves Microsoft profitability in the long run.

I have the same issue with Discord and will no longer use it, so am sad it’s also used for HA.

I will second this. Especially since feature requests from regular users now have to be made on GitHub. That means people have to make an account with Microsoft to request a feature for HA, which is very weird to me.

I have no idea what it would mean for the developers, or if Codeberg is the right platform. But reducing dependency in big tech companies is an important part of what HA is about IMO. Hosting the code on a Microsoft platform does not fit with that.
