Some alternative forge are built with decentralization in mind: - forgejo [1] is working on ForgeFed [2], an extension of ActivityPub (the protocol made popular by Mastodon) - tangled is built on top of ATproto (the protocol behind Bluesky) [3] - radicle is rolling their own protocol, more peer-to-peer than federated [4] - fossil is a broader all-in-one solution: not only a new Version Control System (a replacement for git), but also a forge (has the features of a forge: issues (bug-tracking), PRs, comments, wikis, ...) [5] The other self-hosted forges such as gitlab, sourcehut, gitea don't have such a high level of decentralization and resilience. It does not make them less good, they are solving different problems, mainly being a easy-to-use self-hosted alternative to proprietary forges. For instance Gitea has Gitea Actions, which is designed to be compatible with GitHub Actions [6], while I don't think running CI/CD workflow in a decentralized way will the priority of projects like tangled or radicle.
