      Yeah, this is news to me. I think Codeberg runs on Forgejo, and just the other day people were singing its praises when GitHub became part of Microsoft’s AI team. This feels like a sudden shift.

        Another git repository that is not hosted on itself?
        Seems like a weird choice.

        That’s like the CEO from Microsoft going on stage with a MacBook.

          Codeberg is a service. Forgejo is a platform.

          It’s more like how a warehouse company doesn’t build its own forklifts.

          Forgejo is developped on Codeberg, which runs on Forgejo

          Codeberg is the “demo” Forgejo instance is where they develop the software (Forgejo)

          Forgejo is a fork of Gitea which is pretty well known. They forked out of fear because Gitea got bought and is not a for-profit

      Probably just the weird name. It makes it feel like someone’s weekend personal project.

      I use it to self-host my own code and it works great, I’m totally moved off GitHub now.

      Personally uaong forgejo myself and it has been smooth sailing for ages! This is the first time ive ever seen people taking a stance against it, though the ones in the comments sidnt seem to have a good argument.
