Okay, so this is actually GitHub's mastodon. I'm down. Honestly, i was just thinking of moving to Gitlab because I have a feeling GitHub might start being terrible soon.

Gitlab is a monster to host for your own small amount of projects. If I where to start fresh I would go with https://forgejo.org/

I am also a bit worried how gitlab has changed its pricing not so long ago and the clear push to go towards maximum profit regardless if it's users are still getting a good product.

		I use GitLab for essentially everything and I haven't noticed anything get worse. It's constantly getting new features and many of them are very enterprise-focused, but they don't make the everyday user's experience worse, you can mostly just ignore them.

At Gitlab there is this epic working on ActivityPub support:

They are not going to do anything about it.

The issue was closed last month. Some vocal people complained, then the PM reopened but made it clear that federation is not their priority: https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/11247#note_2603...

		Indeed. But all the work done before that are community contributions. They reopened to allow that kind of work to continue. If there's enough community interest, then Gitlab will become a federated forge most likely.

Also see tangled.sh, which is GitHub's BlueSky (built on ATProto). It's much less mature as a forge than the ones that are being adapted for ForgeFed, but the social support is already very useful in a way that no forge that wants to implement ForgeFed is yet.
