In their own words
Codeberg
Codeberg is a free, community-driven software development platform operated by Codeberg e.V. and built around the Forgejo software forge. Repositories include Git source control, issue tracking, and wikis. Codeberg Pages can publish static websites on a codeberg.page address or custom domain; CI/CD options include a Woodpecker instance and Forgejo Actions. Weblate is available for software localization, and documented integrations include Keycloak, LiberaPay, Matrix, and Read the Docs. Users can enable two-factor authentication, and Codeberg publishes SSH host fingerprints for server verification. Its free plan costs nothing and lists 750 MiB of Git storage, 1.5 GiB for packages, LFS, and attachments, 100 MiB of private or personal content, and 100 repositories. The default repository limit is 100 for users and organizations, with increases requestable. Codeberg is intended for free/libre software projects and may reject uses that do not contribute to that purpose or abuse its infrastructure. It recommends self-hosting Forgejo as an alternative deployment option.
