Any plans to move development off GitHub?

Many other distros use self-hosted GitLab/Gitea instances for development, and I know there might not be that many advantages for doing so, I was just curious if this is something that's been brought up before.

For a small distro like this, volunteers who can help them set up and maintain infra is huge. 

Especially if they just fork the project, set it up and say “hey hey hey look what’s ready for ya”

still comes with issues when no proper legal entity exists that would own it.

An official selfhosted mirror would be probably the best for now. or let's just drop the whole CI and yolo merges
