From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

There is one thing that makes gitlab 100x better than GitHub, and that is that gitlab is developed on gitlab. You can open an issue on the repository and it is picked up like any other issue. No such thing like a GitHub/GitHub repository. I have no clue where to go when something is not to my liking there
There's the GitHub product feedback repo, but as a closed source product (I know, the irony), you can't point to the code for the problem and nothing other than blind luck can guarantee you a reply, let alone a fix.
On top of that, they are adding ads to the UI, even for paying customers, so there's that.
Too bad I can't deal with Gitlab's UI. ~~Codeberg is even worse~~. Gitea ftw.
Uh... isn't Codeberg a Gitea instance?
Codeberg is Forgejo instance. Which is a fork of Gitea lol.
Close enough 😄
Apparently not. Seems to be a closed version of a fork called Forgejo.
From what I understand it's just forgejo with a theme and running woodpecker CI. Not sure that really is "closed".
Isn't Codeberg's UI literally the same except a different theme? Maybe I haven't looked deeply enough, but Forgejo shouldn't have strayed too far from Gitea, at least yet?
Okay my bad, last time I checked Codeberg they UI was funky (contrast and all) now seems to be way more reasonable.
