+Title: Consider other platforms to host Dillo
+Author: rodarima
+Created: Tue, 26 Dec 2023 14:52:58 +0000
+State: open
+
+As discussed with @clehner, we may want to switch to a different platform that can also provide a CI system avoiding Copilot and their closed source nature.
+
+- Codeberg: https://codeberg.org/
+- GitLab instance: https://wiki.p2pfoundation.net/List_of_Community-Hosted_GitLab_Instances
+- Sourcehut: https://sr.ht/
+
+Non exaustive list of problems with GitHub:
+
+- Copilot
+- Replying by email doesn't work well: cannot close issues, markdown doesn't render and cannot attach images or files.
+- Missing dependencies across issues
+- Comments on issues are now JS-walled.
+- Open/closed buttons on milestones no longer work in Firefox.

+Hey there, thanks for reviving it, dillo is awesome !
+
+Sourcehut has been cited in other places as well and will absolutely be a good place. Its focus on small, light web pages aligns with the ideas of Dillo. I'd love to see it there !

+Very large latency (~30s) observed in the Debian GitLab instance.

+
+Sourcehut has a nice web interface that works from Dillo, but [Drew has opposed the usage of CI infrastructure for closed-source operative systems](https://lists.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/sr.ht-discuss/%3CC3ZF0IF242P4.3JN5FF60I1J20@keymaker.local%3E), which is fine for other FOSS projects, but not for a browser that tries to be cross-platform.
+
+The web interface also has other (fixable) problems based on my own experience, regarding attachments and replies to patches, but those are not so much a blocker.
+
+Another problem with sourcehut is that self-hosting is not particularly easy, specially when multiple services are required. Right now in alpha the prices are okay, but I don't know how much they would increase them when the alpha ends.
+
+I'm also reviewing other distributed options like [Radicle](https://radicle.xyz/) and [Fossil](https://www.fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/index.wiki), but they also come with their own sets of drawbacks and benefits.

+Strange situation at Sourcehut, Simon Ser [no longer works there][1]:
+
+> You may have heard that we also had to part ways with one of our staff members
+> recently. This reduces our headcount to two. For the time being we will not be
+> hiring a replacement, but our near-future plans are achievable with our
+> current headcount. Though we usually aim for transparency to the maximum
+> extent possible, we will not be sharing further details about this departure,
+> as a matter of reasonable privacy.
+
+Simon [post][2]:
+
+> Sadly, I need to start this status update with bad news: SourceHut has decided
+> to terminate my contract. At this time, I’m still in the process of figuring
+> out what I’ll do next. I’ve marked some SourceHut-specific projects as
+> unmaintained, such as sr.ht-container-compose (feel free to fork of course).
+> I’ve handed over hut maintenance to xenrox, and I’ve started migrating a few
+> projects to other forges (more to follow). I will continue to maintain
+> projects that I still use such as soju to the extent that my free time allows.
+
+Not sure what the details are, but I don't like the lack of transparency.

+Managed to a setup Woodpecker CI agent (runner) for Codeberg in the RPi 2 for tests.

+
+Radicle seems to be funded by venture capital, so they will need to find a suitable way to monetize it:

+- https://tracxn.com/d/companies/radicle/__kTwrUZvI_hwDhvMbO9h4h5TPIEJ5UMCiTyi9B7YXI0Y
+
+> Radicle has raised a total funding of $12M over 1 round. Its latest funding round was a Series B round on Feb 18, 2021 for $12M. 6 investors participated in its latest round, lead by [NFX](https://tracxn.com/d/venture-capital/nfx/__6V6UcYGwqq_nXCSVDCyXyDyfG46UkAhf0eaaGAdG4MI).

+> Radicle has 15 institutional investors including [NFX](https://tracxn.com/d/venture-capital/nfx/__6V6UcYGwqq_nXCSVDCyXyDyfG46UkAhf0eaaGAdG4MI), [Cherry Ventures](https://platform.tracxn.com/a/d/company/55e8847ae4b0672c6cbc8808/cherry.vc) and [Coinbase](https://platform.tracxn.com/a/d/company/52bdc180e4b0420b03968e60/coinbase.com). [Naval Ravikant](https://tracxn.com/d/people/naval-ravikant/__zjY_8gmflKDzBLSv520Gkf9qM24BNrfFb_Vo_boSVAQ) and 2 others are Angel Investors in Radicle.
