I can’t help but notice most (all I’ve seen anyway) of the federated projects are hosted on GitHub. GitLab is also not federated, but can be self hosted and has at least discussed it.
I am fully aware of my bias for GitLab over GitHub, but I still wonder why is those things? Is there a federated source hosting project?
Wait what? I’m running three different self hosted gitlab, and they aren’t resource hogs at all. One has thousands of active users. Maybe if you are trying to run on a rpi or something you are going to have issues… But come on, Bitcoin miner? That is hyperbole
