- Upd is a free and open-source code hosting platform positioned as a sanctuary away from big tech like GitHub.
- It was created in response to the noise and content-farm nature of modern OSS communities, offering a smaller, quieter place.
- The platform focuses on genuine connections rather than stars and forks, making repository creation meaningful again.
- Built independently by professionals, it features fast, stable, geo-distributed infrastructure with transparent operations.
- Key features include best-in-class diff rendering (Pierre), Berkeley Mono font, and native package serving for Go, Rust, Arch, and more.
- Upd prioritizes developer freedom: no global code of conduct, no ban on vibe-coding, and each project sets its own rules.
