    Forgejo was soft forked from Gitea after the went commercial and changed the license (I think). If they aren’t yet, expect pay walled features eventually.

    Forgejo turned into a hard fork after communication issues, I haven’t looked too deeply into it (as I don’t really care about the fact that it’s a hard fork now). This means while it used to be a drop-in replacement showing you to go back and forth between the two, it’s now an active conversion i think.

      Thanks for answering my question instead of downvoting like half the other chuckleheads. Guess I’ll migrate to Forgejo if my Gitea instance ever gets too old.

        You should probably migrate now, forgejo is currently a soft fork that is fully compatible, but in the future they are planning to hard fork and not be compatible. Well, they are in the process of doing so right now.

  Forgejo didn’t exist when I installed gitea.
