The operate on less than 100_000€/year, so I would cut them some slack ;-) btw. codeberg is not a company, more like a foundation, Verein is the german word.

I fail to see how this is relevant to the point I was making. With uptime being so low, it's not a viable alternative: budget / resources / etc. don't change that fact.

Don't get me wrong — I am glad that they are doing what they're doing, but it's a long way until it becomes a real alternative.

We don't actually know what githubs uptime is because they don't say. If you told me it's less than 96.5, I might believe you, particular for actions.

I'm sure if Codeberg had equivalent resources they'd be good, hard to fault a nonprofit for not benefiting from a trillion dollar multinational corporation. What was GitHub's excuse for their failures?

Are they a profit center yet?

I am not criticizing Codeberg, I'm just adding context that seems very important from my experience.

As mentioned above — I am glad that they exist and do what they do. However, that doesn't mean I should ignore issues like this.
