Codeberg, self-hosting Gitea, or something else? (lemmy.world)

It seems that GitHub is being blocked in my region as well as other options from U.S. based companies (e.g. GitLab)

Where should I migrate my repos? Codeberg is an option as it’s Europe based so isn’t blocked in my region. Codeberg Pages is also nice to have. However, Codeberg seems to push for excluding proprietary software dependencies, which might limit the kinds of projects I can do.

Another option is to self-host Gitea, I could use my old laptop for that. Gitea doesn’t have a GitHub pages, but there seems to be third-party plugins that allow that. The downside with self-hosting (for me) is that it means I’m unable to collaborate with others (since it’ll be local) and I can’t easily share my projects. It will also probably be harder to set up.

What other options are there, or are these two the best options for me?

edit: decided on Codeberg, how do I make my static pages to work with Codeberg Pages? I've switched to a "pages" branch and the website doesn't work (https://username.codeberg.page/repo-name/)

How do I make static pages work with Codeberg???

how so?

I'd like to get educated as well, please. So far, ForgeJo doesn't seem to have any specific advantage over Gitea. (And the name couldn't be worse...)
