Make it nerdy enough to scare of agentic coders only. Also, blackjack and hookers are said to be helpful in such circumstances.

sourcehut is pretty close

Actually, forget about the site...

What do you need users for?

GH is not a social network

I don't know. Everyone seems to be using GitHub only because everyone else is using GitHub. Apparently that's important somehow. Me, I use "git init"

It's a lot easier to get bug reports and fixes when everyone is on the same auth system.

That's why there is also a call for federated forges

Forgejo is a thing. But the headlines lately make it sound like it’s not in great shape either.

Could you expand? I couldn't find anything relevant after a few search attempts.

Yeah, look for HN headlines with forgejo and carrot (iirc). It made a lot of noise in the last couple weeks.

codeberg is doing fine

If measured the same way, ie combined status across all products, then codeberg is also at a whopping 0 9s.

> We should make an alternative git site, but how to acquire users?

Buy ad space on Github's outage page?
