This is cool but would be better on Codeberg rather than (or in addition to) github, for those of us who are privacy focused and hate Microslop.

It's been on my radar for a while and I've been looking around for alternative platforms for the obvious reasons.

I haven't figured out how I'd deal with existing podcast episodes that refer to "my GitHub repository". When I migrated away from Reddit, at least there weren't specific references, but that's not the case with GitHub.

So while I'll admit that I am aware of my inertia, it's not without cause.

Ideas and suggestions welcome.

You can let GitHub be a read only mirror of code berg, or make one final commit to GitHub to each repo’s Readme.md with links to the code berg repo, then archive it on git hub. That way links and references still work, and you can work on the new platform.

Amateur radio takes a lifetime to learn. So the sooner you start the longer it'll take.
