Git is already decentralised. Every github-like is interoperable with every other github-like. But just because something works together with many others doesn’t makes it invulnerable to legal takedowns. Nintendo is a gaming company. They have no problems playing whack-a-mole, as demonstrated here.
I’ve been kinda low key waiting for federation on Feorejo to move most of my personal projects off of GitHub. I’ve been busy anyway, so I guess, for me, it’s a race between their clever devs and my procrastinating…
Why there’s no decentralized github-like ?

I think there’s a difference between distributed and decentralised. But apart from that 👍
Yeah, but Nintendo hasn’t won a lawsuit, which means the code isn’t illegal to share. They just convinced GitHub to take it down.
There’s are a few, but they’re pretty new. Codeberg / Forejo seems to be the most popular, at the moment.
But it’s not yet federalized. I host my forgejo instance but others can’t yet create issues there.

I’m so excited for it. Forgejo is by itself fully usable, but I want to be able to federate stuff.
Check out forgejo. While git is „decentralized“ it is not discoverable. Forgejo is pretty much there afaik using ap protocol.
