Hello, I was thinking of moving all my open source projects here. Anyone have any opinions? Excuse the post if this has been discussed previously, I was unable to find anything directly relating to peoples opinions on using it.

Edit: Lots of great discussion going on here! Thanks to everyone who contributed! I wasn't sure before but now I am set on moving all my projects over. The fact that it will be federated makes it even more appealing given that github is now requiring phone numbers and other personal information in order to create an account on their site.

The interface is the best I know of, a lot like pre-Microsoft github. Especially important to me is that It doesn't intercept my browser's built-in shortcuts like github now does, or require javascript or bury things under submenus like gitlab does.

The promise of federation is appealing, too.

I plan to use it for new public projects, and might even move my old ones over.
