Someone mentioned this awesome fork of it for that reason https://forgejo.org/compare/#why-was-forgejo-created

Exactly. I’d always go for Forgejo over Gitea now, especially since even Codeberg uses it (and I trust them)

Thanks! I’m a Gitea user for years and was not aware of this. I was planning my own Gitea server, I will now forgo gitea for forgejo.

I made the switch a couple of days ago. Just downloaded the forgejo binary, renamed it to gitea and dropped it in as a replacement. Now I am running forgejo successfully.
