I'm guessing it's this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35364146 although it didn't seem to get much traction other than the one comment that matches what I found while trying to read up on it:
https://github.com/Cicada-Software/cicada/blob/main/docs/ci-...
> create a file _anywhere in your repository_ ending in .ci
uh-huh
> Note that you cannot use the pipe operator (|) with the shell command, only one command can be executed at a time
uh-huh
> To make sure that your workflow works, try pushing to your repository
so, no local runner for this, either. fantastic.
So instead of using Starlark, which a non-trivial number of folks already know, there's already editor support for, and is obviously designed to be embedded, they decided that what the world needs is another DSL. Got it.
Forgejo is pretty neat. They’re developing https://forgefed.org/ , which is an ActivityPub extension for software forges. If it works, it’ll extend the decentralized nature of git to issues, pull requests, etc.

I’m trying to migrate of my personal repos from GitHub to Codeberg. The biggest problem is to find a replacement for GitHub Actions (the free offering is so generous), and my current solution for that is to self-host an instance of Woodpecker CI [1].
I’d like to see even more diversity in Git hosting beyond “let’s all migrate from X to Y”, and for that to happen, Forgejo (a soft fork of Gitea) has already began implementing federation [2].

You can both be right. The title as it stands describes Codeberg as a "Fast Open Source Alternative to GitHub" and I'd agree that it's a confusing title to say the least.
What we're really talking about here is a free-as-in-beer SaaS service that primarily caters to open source software repositories. This isn't clear in the title, because "Open Source" in this context can be read both as the back-end itself being open source (which it is), or more correctly -- but much less obviously -- that it's an alternative for open source repositories compared to GitHub.
Codeberg uses Forgejo[1] which in turn is a soft fork of Gitea[2], and anyone can use these two projects to self-host their proprietary codebase -- but the title for this post in no way makes it clear what Codeberg actually is.
One could literally just take the first thing you see on their website and it would be a much better description:
> Codeberg is a collaboration platform and Git hosting for free and open source software, content and projects.

Are you being sarcastic?
If not, GitHub recently updated their search feature and it's pretty good.
