However, projects hosted on Codeberg are not necessarily by developers of software—on the other hand, deciding on a new slogan can be difficult and contentious, as first impressions really matter (and there's not a lot of space there).
So, one of the people controlling the social media account decided to ask the fediverse: Any good ideas?
@Codeberg A codeforge for the commons by the commons.

@n0toose @soulcutter @Codeberg I still don't see any advantage. Folks feel consulted but if their idea is not represented, then that can't be a happy occasion. Maybe some focus groups but the spray and pray method of marketing kind of violates everything about marketing as a discipline. I get that you might not have a background in this area. I'd suggest starting with Peter Drucker for a good foundation.
@jeffmcneill @soulcutter @Codeberg Eh, there's a good idea here and there, but it's true that there's (as expected) a lot of things that would not be "usable as-is", but they still have value in the sense that they're an expression of "how one sees/thinks of Codeberg" in one sentence.
Thank you for the advice; I'll take a look into the suggestion.

Tip: A bunch of ideas we have gotten so far involve the themes "mountain"/"summit", "unlike the 'rest of the Internet'", "retreat", "iceberg", "cool"... there miiiight be something behind those, but we also welcome out-of-the-box suggestions.

@Codeberg I hate slogans because they are completely useless. What's the point? How does it solve anything? You have a lot of space to explain what codeberg stands for so.

@Codeberg "fork around and find out"?
