    As a GitHub replacement, I recommend Codeberg ! They’re managed by a nonprofit which you can easily join and participate in the voting. Push times are a tad longer than on GitHub, but still only take a few seconds.

    I can’t speak for the CI aspect though, as I haven’t used any of GitHub’s automations. My projects are small enough that I can run the tests locally.

    Nice, now do AWS. That thing’s impossible to escape. Well, with effort you could migrate to another American cloud, like Google or Azure (Microsoft).

    Hopefully Hetzner will get there one day, but they’re really far from being a competition to the 3.

      Going away from AWS ranges anywhere from trivial to literally impossible. If you for example only use S3 there are drop in replacements so you basically only have to change one config file once.

      But they offer stuff that has no replacements that I just learned of recently. For example did you know IMDb has an API? Well it’s only usable via AWS. I mean yeah it makes sense from a business perspective and it’s a real niche edge case, but if you, like me, wanna access IMDb programmatically, welp…. time to parse HTML like a caveman.

        Just opened the page and there’s no deny all button for cookies, not a great start.

        Edit: Checked their offering, not even quarter of our needs would be met.

    More and more, I think the best replacement for a cloud drive is just Syncthing.

    I went through the list and wrote what I use to replace it.

    • Microsoft Office 365
      Mail -> Tuta
      Calendar -> I don’t use a calendar, but Tuta would be my option
      OneDrive -> I still use OneDrive, but I’m also using Filen.io and Syncthing
      Documents* -> ONLYOFFICE (Documents)
    • Bitwarden -> KeePassXC and Keepass2Android
    • GitHub -> I still use GitHub…
    • Google search -> SearXNG with several search engines

    *Documents weren’t listed or mentioned since they’re not cloud services, but I think it’s worth talking about. I’m just using ONLYOFFICE and syncing everything with Filen.io and Syncthing.

        Yeah, I’ve heard of that… Isn’t CryptPad just an online wrapper of ONLYOFFICE?

        But yeah, thing is LibreOffice is… Worse. I do have it installed though, and I use it occasionally. I’ll try and use it more.
