This is really unfair to the many people who spend their free time working on Forgejo, please stop spreading nonsense. They have worked hard on "boring" improvements like translations, accessibility and proper unit and e2e testing, but also UI improvements, federation support, and other genuinely new features (asset quotas, wiki search, ...). Take a look for yourself: https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/pulls.
Regarding the money part, Forgejo is not monetized. It is a true FOSS project (recently re-licensed as GPLv3), not open-core like Gitea. The only funding they receive is from donations and grants, they are not selling a product.
