    It absolutely is. Yes. You can run and maintain it on an own server and it is open core (yeah 😥) using the MIT license - unlike GitHub where you have to rely 100% on the goodwill of Microsoft and everything is closed and locked behind a TOS.

      So why not use forejo, which is completely open source?

      If your criticism is MS pulling the plug, then Gitlab pulling a Redis/Hashicorp move and re-licensing their core should also be a concern

        Absolutely! I’d always go the Forgejo route!

        The thing is: I don’t see Firefox being hosted with Forgejo. The code base and amount of data might be way too massive. I see Forgejo as a forge for smaller projects.

          Is there a reason you think Forgejo is only for smaller projects?

              Probably because it has only existed for 2 years
