Welcome to git.m724.eu!
This service is because I don't like github
Server specs
raspberry pi 5 with an sd card 64 gb
Sounds weak? It is but it works just fine and I don't need more expenses
Setup
I can't tell you where it's hosted but I can tell you how:
Basically there's a single docker compose file for the whole stack:
- forgejo
- mariadb
- nginx: the web server that supports http3 (github doesnt)
- acme: manages ssl
That is proxied to another server which acts as a firewall
Mail is from mxroute but I also use it for other purposes so it's like free
Why I don't like github:
- no support for the latest version of the ip protocol. There are rumors that ipv6 is coming to github and I honestly hope it's soon (not that I'll switch to github if it happens)
- it's
slownot as fast, loading stuff takes a few seconds but I understand it's inevitable for a service with millions of users - and the one you've been waiting for: it's owned by a big tech company and as we all know the big stands for their property they can't get enough of and like to trade with everyone. Guess what's a part of that property? That's right our private data
- "ok but I have nothing to hide" I understand why you think so. But imagine somebody took many pictures of your house and your property inside and outside how would that feel. and used it to train ai.
- they're also juicy targets for hackers (and skids) so even if you're not targeted your data still leaks
