I use vscodium and it is available on AUR (vscodium / vscodium-bin). Supposedly there are some plugins not available for it, but i don’t use a ton of plugins and the ones I used in vscode were available in vscodium when i switched.

Why Not Use…?
I am aware that there are many other git “forge” platforms available. Gitea, Codeberg, and Forgejo all come to mind. Those platforms are great as well. If you prefer those options instead of SourceHut that’s fine! Switching to any of those would still be a massive improvement over GitHub.
Unfortunately, I find the need to have an account in order to contribute to projects a deal breaker. It causes too much friction for no real gain. Email based workflows will always reign supreme. It’s the OG of code contributions.
Ive been using codeberg(a public forgejo) and it felt more familiar coming from github/gitlab. Sourcehut wasn’t bad, but it did feel quite a bit different and i admittedly didn’t get too far past that. I do like the idea of contributing without an account though. i know that it’s a git feature to create a patch file but having a forge support it is neat.
Semi related, I do look forward to federation of forgejo which i think helps the “needing an account” somewhat. I think it’s less unreasonable to expect someone to have an account on -any federated forge- than to have an account at the specific forge my project is on.
Good article though. It did help make sourcehut make more sense than the first time i looked at it
Im not familiar with doku wiki but here’s a few thoughts
I submitted a response but if i may give some feedback, the second portion brings up:
This seemed out of place because there were no other value related questions (iirc). Such as:
I’m sure you could also think of more. But i think it’s pretty important because between cloud service providers and any non-free apps you want to use, it can be quite costly compared to the cost of some hardware and time it takes to set things up.
The rest of my responses don’t change but if you’re wanting to understand the impact of money in all of this, i think some more questions are needed
Best of luck!
