Agree about GitHub. I am much warmer to the idea of moving to Codeberg now. I posted in IRC about yesterdays outage and did not see a post until 12 hours later. That is separate from the constant DDoS-ing issue that shuts down servers constantly. I know Anubis has been rejected, for some understandable reasons. I very much hate proof-of-work for its part in cryptocurrency (scams, 99% of the time, and that is a charitable metric). But it seems everyone who has adopted Anubis has had great success, compared to our solutions for gnu.org and friends. Codeberg has the resources to deal with these issues, and seems better than expecting a Savannah volunteer to be available at all times (which is unreasonable). Collin
