Movement

This is the first edition on this tier, so no move can be computed for Codeberg yet. From the next edition this section shows, per buyer segment, whether its share moved by more than the measured noise floor.

By model

How each model treated Codeberg across every prompt where it was named for a mid-market B2B company. Twelve models, six prompts per category.

Which of the six questions produced the naming. By model says how often; this says asked what. The first-choice count on the right carries the marks of the models that produced it.

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“For open source: Codeberg or SourceHut offer strong privacy commitments” MiniMax M2.5 · Source control · negative prompt · first choice
“Codeberg | Hosted, non-profit | Free, EU-based, open-source values” Kimi K2 · Source control · negative prompt · first choice
“Alternative: Consider Codeberg (a non-profit, privacy-focused Git host that actively bans generative-AI written repos and respects copyleft licensing)” Gemini 3.5 Flash · Source control · negative prompt · alternative
“Codeberg and Forgejo are mentioned as alternatives that prioritize data retention within the EU and GDPR compliance.” Llama 4 Maverick · Source control · negative prompt · alternative

And against it

Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.

No model argued against it.

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Codeberg. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.

Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, four of the twelve in this edition, so these counts come from 19 of the 22 answers that named Codeberg and are not a share of its labels.

Is this your product?

Claim this page

Claiming is free and changes nothing in the data. A claimed page shows a verified contact who is told when each edition publishes and when Codeberg's standing changes by more than the noise floor; the right to propose corrections to the vendor table, meaning names the judge wrote that should or should not read as Codeberg, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.

It does not get any change to labels, shares or verdicts, any preview, or any say over which quotes appear. A verification link goes to your work email; an address at codeberg.org is approved on the spot, any other address is reviewed by hand.

Your name and company appear on the claimed page, or the company alone if you ask below. A title and a LinkedIn address appear there too if you give them, and are left off if you do not. Your email address is never published.
