Support peer-to-peer alternatives.
The technology to realize a peer-to-peer alternative to GH is here. We just need to make it happen. IMO radicle.xyz is the most promising one right now.

The only path that makes me hopeful involves a combination of 1. FOSS software (ie forkabke when the warlord misbehaves) 2. user owned / governed networks, so the warlord can't easily get extractive against their users.
Re:Understanding Peer-to-Peer Git Forges with Radicle

Fossil does what you are asking already as well as projects like git-bug.
What Radicle adds to the mix is a gossip / social layer around git, which is an interesting idea.

Federation prioritizes a different trust model vs peer-to-peer systems. For instance, you still need to trust the admin / server provider.
Also forgefed has been around for a while and I haven't seen any progress since two years ago when I last checked on the project.

The fact that they assume that decentralized web equals immutable and global by default shows ignorance. You should take a look at SSB and Radicle, if you want a different dweb than IPFS.
