Decentralized Git Collaboration Platform with Built-in CI

C6/10May 27, 2026

WhatA self-hostable, federated Git platform that includes issue tracking, code review, and CI/CD with an open API spec — designed so teams own their infrastructure while still collaborating across organizations.

SignalDevelopers are expressing deep fatigue with GitHub's recurring outages and feel trapped because the entire ecosystem (issues, PRs, Actions, API) is centralized on one provider, contradicting Git's original decentralized design. There is a growing willingness to self-host but frustration that alternatives like GitLab are painful to use.

Why NowGitHub's reliability has measurably degraded in 2025-2026 with critical incidents becoming weekly events, while AI-driven features (Copilot) appear to be consuming engineering resources at the expense of core infrastructure stability.

MarketEngineering teams at mid-to-large companies paying $21/user/month for GitHub Enterprise; TAM is $5B+ developer tools market. Gitea and Forgejo exist but lack polish, federation, and integrated CI that matches GitHub Actions.

MoatFederation protocol and plugin ecosystem create network effects — once organizations adopt and interconnect, switching costs compound across the federation graph.
