Never forget the sudden GitLab price-hike and flavor feature changes just a few years ago. I was literally about to go from free to paid, when the pricing doubled nearly overnight. I left for Gitea.

Have you looked at migrating to Forgejo? It’s a fork of Gitea though I think it has diverged significantly since the fork.

  • I did and then rolled back. Gitea is far ahead in CI/CD features, which is the main thing I want from my own git forge. And they also seem to keep adding more meaningful features, not just refactoring to keep some federation thing working.

    • Interesting, thanks for the perspective. I’ve heard about both in various ways. Obviously some people like one over the other.
