  • Forgejo was founded after gitea had some issues regarding its ownership and management.

  • Still running Gitea here, but if Forgejo can actually pull ahead I might rethink switching.
    It started with the intention of a soft fork, so all this might also land in Gitea.

  • I am waiting for federation to land. Would love to give it a spin and see how smooth that works across instances.

  • Not sure I would want to host my code on a random instance...

    Does it support CI, or is just a version control?

      • Powerful: Organizations & team permissions, CI integration, Code Search, LDAP, OAuth and much more. If you have advanced needs, Forgejo has you covered.

      Selfhosters wanna host. But many people don't. (Ergo: lemmy.world, mastodon.world (GitHub anyone?) so maybe people would like forgejo.world And if not, I'll use it myself! :-)

      • If you pull that one I'll kiss your feet. No really, forgejo is a wonderful piece of software. I'm eagerly awaiting their implementation of activitypub so that I can make code imrpovements without having to sing up for thousand services.

        Imagine the benefits if the code for your activitypub instances were hosted on an activitypub federated platform. Everyone could participate from the comfort of the fediverse.

    • There is an "Actions" feature coming that is very similar to GitHub actions for CI and similar use-cases. It's still behind a feature flag as it's not quite ready for prime-time, but you can enable it on a self-hosted instance if you want. I believe this is also in Gitea as well, so you don't have to use the Forgejo fork, but I have moved my instance over due to the whole situation leading to the fork.

      • Thanks for the feedback. We currently use a self-hosted Gitlab on our company but it uses a lot of resources. Was wondering if I should take a look at forgejo.

    • they try to implement activitypub so that you can create issues, comment and collaborate with any fediverse account.
