Lightly browned and well buttered. A solid pick from the rack.
Summary
Gentoo Linux has established a presence on Codeberg, a non-profit Forgejo-based platform in Berlin, as an alternative to GitHub. The Gentoo repository mirror is now available at codeberg.org/gentoo/gentoo, allowing contributions to be submitted there. This move is part of a gradual migration away from GitHub, as mentioned in the 2025 end-of-year review, with plans to eventually make other git repositories available under the Codeberg Gentoo organization.
