Interesting - as much as I like sourcehut, my only complaint is that it's noticeably slower than GitHub for me. It's not terrible, by any means, but I've noticed it a few times when I push to both.

My guess is that I'm closer to a GitHub datacenter (or AWS region?) because they have an office here in Boulder.

Try again; Sourcehut just updated their pull/push logic to make it significantly faster.
How recent was this?
Yesterday.
First push and first pull have been slow here too (first pull was ~19s), but now I'm getting reasonable timings (~2s)
It's gotta warm up the cache. Glad it's working well now!
It could be that I am located close to the data center hosting the site. From my understanding the main server backing the site is hosted near Philadelphia, the city that I live in.
