Move away from GitHub

GitHub being Microsoft-owned, is not the ideal great place for community projects such as OpenWRT.

We all know about Microsoft's historically combative stance against FOSS projects, and recently Github has been randomly shadow-banning accounts in other communities that I'm a member of.

Operating on Github is antithetical to the spirit of the OpenWRT community, and even the Software Freedom Conservancy (a prominent supporter of OpenWRT) has long advocated for Open Source projects to switch from Github: https://giveupgithub.org/

I can see that this has been discussed before, but no move was ever made in the end. Is there anything I can do right now to help facilitate a move to a more honest and open source system, like Codeberg perhaps?
