FSF Urges Moving Off Microsoft's GitHub to Protest Windows 11's Requiring TPM 2.0 (news.slashdot.org)

TPM is a dedicated chip or firmware enabling hardware-level security, housing encryption keys, certificates, passwords, and sensitive data, "and shielding them from unauthorized access," Microsoft senior product manager Steven Hosking wrote last month, declaring TPM 2.0 to be "a non-negotiable standard for the future of Windows."

What's a good alternative (assuming this is one of the few things I don't want to self-host)?

I self-host Gogs for my internal projects, but my public stuff is on Github. The only "fancy" GH feature I use is the actions since it will do ARM builds which I can't do locally.

https://codeberg.org/ is a nice alternative.

They do provide access to a runner for actions, but you need to request access to it.

Does Codeberg allow private repos?

[–] scsi@lemm.ee 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The use of a private repo is limited due to the scope of what Codeberg's open source mission is, which is not the same as Github/Gitlab for-profit entities. The details on both branches (public repo FOSS licenses and private repo use) are in the FAQ: https://docs.codeberg.org/getting-started/faq/#before-i-start-using-codeberg...

Thanks, I just read on their site that private repos are very limited some time ago, so i was not sure if this changed
