Keep in mind if you’ve pinned your docker-compose.yml as they suggest in the installation guide, you’ll want to increment that.

Can’t wait!
What are some benefits of a vcs being federated?
Does Forgejo have any killer features or something that makes it worthwhile for me to switch away from Gitea now?
The longer you wait the more incompatible and harder to migrate it will get.
While right now the features have not diverged that much, only Forgejo is working on federation and due to license incompatibility it will not be possible to back-port that to Gitea.

I know, but I thought it was already too late to simply change the docker image and be done with it. But, you are saying it’s still just a drop-in replacement currently?
Not being run by corporate overlords
Seriously though, the community is a lot healthier
Actions is significantly better, there are lots of subtle UI improvements, there are new importers, etc. Not a killer feature, but many small improvements that add up.
Thanks!
By the way you framed you question sounds like you are looking for an excuse to move away from gitea

not really. it is more of, “i am not really motivated enough right now, can you please motivate me a bit?”
Ist a federated git?
Not yet, but that’s coming https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/issues/59
Update June 2024: this issue is no longer updated. Progress on federation can be followed from:
forgejo/federation
It’s like, there if you want it, but you totally don’t have to download. No pressure at all!
I’m assuming an upgrade is pretty painless. I guess know what I’m doing at work on Monday.

Since I just saw this in the self hosted weekly post:
Do not upgrade to 13.0.0
Seems like there is a bug and one should use 13.0.1
