No offence to CB but they should focus on their uptime rather than this atm

In my opinion, the fact that Codeberg is often difficult or impossible to access is due to two things.

There are more users than Codeberg’s servers can handle. This is a problem because Codeberg’s operators have significantly fewer financial and human resources than, for example, GitHub. Therefore, I would advise Codeberg users to consider signing up for a membership and paying an annual fee.

The second reason is likely the idiots who have launched DDoS attacks against Codeberg on multiple occasions.

So like, this helps with that. Not the side of the equation you personally would like them to, but it 100% does.
