Hosting tons of forks can be done very efficiently if you storage solution provides adequate *deduplication* support. That's only one of the typical issues that you'll have to face, if you try to imitate the big ones by using utterly inadequate means. Tools which only look similar on their outer surface. Fighting notification spam, which plagued codeberg (=forgejo) users the last days in a very unpleasant way, are a similar problem. Ignoring the importance of these less obvious maintenance requirements looks to me like setting up an email server resp. gateway without any mature spam protection facilities these days. But I also wouldn't be happy if GitHub would be simply chosen at the end because of all this challenging troubles and dangers. Anyway -- CI workflow, automatic PR checks and satisfying comment and documentation support are IMHO much more important aspects than just hosting a git repo on the web. martin _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-request@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
