Just a personal testimony that I am moving in the exactly opposite direction towards Sourcehut and a CGit hosted on my own server. For me, it is all about ownership: Microsoft pushes very hard on GitHub users to give more and more of their ownership towards them. Not only they included complete VS Code into GitHub (aka github.dev), but they push hard more and more into pull requests, aka the part of your presence on GitHub which you don’t own at all. See https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/29490/files … with all those “Commit suggestion” stuff it is less and less about Decentralized VCS and more about owning your project (not your code, I know, but all your communication, intelligence collected, annotations about the code). How much better in terms of ownership you are with Savannah (or me with Sourcehut), where are all this intelligence and conversation is in email lists, which are easily exportable into standard format.
