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 that is not hosted 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.
Wasnt aware of that. I believed they were an alternative to gitea, github, forgejo, sourceforge
Codeberg is a forgejo installation. lemmy.dbzer0.com isn't lemmy itself
Forgejo is developped on Codeberg, which runs on Forgejo
Codeberg is the "demo" Forgejo instance is where they develop the software (Forgejo)
Forgejo is a fork of Gitea which is pretty well known. They forked out of fear because Gitea got bought and is now a for-profit iirc
