CI/CD works fine for selfhosted forgejo, I set mine up with minimal hassle.
Comment on Which git plateform to choose?

I’d say Forgejo as it is the most simple of the three. If you want more complexity (like CI/CD), then one of the other two. You can checkout Forgejo at codeberg.org.

Is the CI/CD still a faithful clone of github’s worst-in-show setup? Because if I had a plan for ditching GL, the CI keeps forgejo from being a contender.

Sure, but it’s not part of Forgejo, is it?

I guess it depends on how you look at it - “It needs to be installed separately.”

Thanks for you reply, I did not know what CI/CD mean so just checked it, it’s not important for me because I want to display only finished project. Forgejo looks great and I just found it’s available as a TrueNas app which is great for me.

I’ve been running forgejo (and forgejo-runner for workflows) on TrueNAS for a little while now, without any issues really.
The runner image is also available as a TrueNAS app, so if you ever do want CI/CD it’s pretty simple to set up.

Gitea is not fundamentally different, Forgejo is just a better fork of it. Better in terms of: more contributors, more users, dogfooding (Gitea is built on Github 🤦).
But yes, GitLab is like the Mac of Git forges: everything is included, doing everything their own way, vendor lock, very expensive. There is a community edition but serious users will run into its limitations and it does not integrate neatly with external solutions.
Forgejo is IMO the Linux of Git forges: low on resources, expandable, hackable, stable.
We should also keep in mind that Gitea was hostilely taken away from the community by a for-profit corporation that made Gitea open-core by hiding a way features behind a paywall in a cloud.
FUD
Gitea is still MIT licensed and the Enterprise tier features only cater to large org needs [1]
why would I want to deal with nightmarish SAML config when OIDC does the job
FACT
The corporation basically stole the project from the community and started hiding features behind a paywall.
It is completely irrelevant if you need the features that are closed and behind a paywall and are not part of the open core.

No true Scot, then?
I’m running gitlab implementations at a few sites. I’ve not seen or heard of any performance limiter with a self-managed community edition that removes a tool the others still provide.
Again, this sounds FUDdy. Which ‘external solutions’ are you using that a git-push fails on? Some spaghetti of saas tendrils seems to be already a risk, but I can’t think of any other external thing that it could mess up with.

GitLab doesn’t include everything, manu features are behind paywall.

Eh, there’s not really a better/worse between Gitea and ForgeJo. Gitea is targeting business customers, ForgeJo is targeting the open source community.
