It seems reasonable way forward for them to try something. To me it makes little sense to fork where the license remains free and they just want to try to make a business out of their work.

Storm in a teapot.

I also had the impression that the Forgejo port was having more of the community on its side. Too me it seemed like the better option, and I never regretted switching.

The question is whether with potentially so huge repository (including the internal one) we won’t be looking for the paid support eventually. Won’t we?

Just about community size, for now the numbers are very much in favour of Gitea. Maybe that will change in the future. But for now, I think sticking with Gitea is the way to go.

There is paid support from multiple vendors available for Forgejo: https://codeberg.org/forgejo/professional-services/issues

https://forgejo.org/compare-to-gitea/ looks to me in favor of Forgejo.

My understanding is that you can not see the community size that way as Forgejo tried to send every one of their changes to Gitea, until the announcement this month. I find it difficult to get better numbers. Maybe it will get more obvious in half a year or so, we can revisit then.

I would vote to revisit this at a later point.
