SourceHut sounds very close to what you describe: https://sr.ht/

I’ve had my eye on this platform. Generally like their design and ethos too. However I find their code viewer/navigation a little hard for my eye. But maybe I’m just too used to GitHub.

[epicide]

Sure. If you really wanted to, I think the pages are simple enough that you could add your own CSS tweaks via a basic browser plugin (or whatever is the current go-to plugin for doing this).

For me, I only use a forge's viewer/navigation for cursory glances or sharing links to others. If I need to spend any real time digging, I'll clone the repo.

No one notices the part about private repos and access control...

You didn't mention private repos in your comment, but I guess that was implied in the $7 thing.

That said: SourceHut has private repos and access control.

> SourceHut has private repos and access control

... but not on the sr.ht link you gave. That's a list of projects like your average open source hosting landing page.

You have to click on the tiny sourcehut link at the top to see the real site.

Right, I always forget that the sr.ht link is to the application itself.

For anybody else who needs it, the page with info about the service is here: https://sourcehut.org/
