  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 is hosted not 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

      Their “demo” instance is where they develop the software

  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.

  I don’t even know how to pronounce it. Forge Joe? For Gay Ho?

      Any product name that needs a voice file to explain itself is a bad name 🤦 what were they thinking?

        Forgejo (/forˈd͡ʒe.jo/ – inspired by forĝejo, the Esperanto word for forge) source

  They probably don’t. If you see a sudden FUD, it could be astroturfing.
