And why don't you set up your own GIT service and be 100% independent?

I've been using gitea https://gitea.io/en-us/ for a few years now for different projects and it's the best I've been able to do so as not to depend on external services that might change hands.

Hi SAn,

you really want to recommend using the service of a company which has
previously bought another company just to remove them from the
market (gitorious.org) and then make all their users' content
unavailable for almost 1 year without prior warning two months later?
Yes, they just switched it off and referred people to archive.org
who was also not prepared for it and it took 1 year until we had
a read-only mirror of the content previously hosted on gitorious.org.
I've wittnessed that first hand as all my personal projects were hosted
on gitorious.org -- on wikipedia gitlab is trying to make it look more
beautiful than it was, saying that they offered automated migration
to (paid) gitlab.com (wasn't offered to me, I didn't have a gitlab.com
account at the time and wasn't willing to paid nor accepted their
terms&conditions).
Just for the record, neither github.com nor Microsoft actually ever did
any harm to any OpenSource project in such a blunt and malignant way.
Not even Oracle did.

If you just want to run away from github.com (for good reasons), maybe
look here:
