Federated Git server (self.fediverse)

I think that federated gitlab instances could be a good next step forward for becoming independent from big companies.

At the moment I host a lot of my code to Github because of discoverability, but I do not feel comfortable with depending on Microsoft for this service. Gitlab is a self hosted Git server, but there is no way to federate the instances like on Lemmy. Are there any projects that deal with this?

I wasn't aware of the sanctions, so thanks for sharing that! As for the AI, it is inevitable if the source code is public. Having it hosted elsewhere might slow the consumption, but it's coming regardless.

Still, I do think a federated platform is a great idea. The more we can do without relying on a centralized, corporate platform, the better off we'll be as a society.
