Also, fuck gitea, long live forgejo
what did exactly did gitea do?
I didn't see this one, perfect to show people why 👍👏
(not up to date)
What did GitHub do?
It's more of a fault to Gitlab and other sites that they fail to compete, but GitHub is rapidly centralizing open source development to the point that projects don't use it lose out.
I used to develop a RuneScape private server called 2006scape. It hasn't been developed in years, but the source code release on GitHub still gets more views than 2009scape, an actively developed RuneScape private server on Gitlab with significantly more features and hyperactive development.
This means if you're looking for contributors, or even users of your software in general, you want to be on GitHub. Most open source projects that aren't on GitHub either follow a harder independence ideology or are blissfully unaware of what they're missing out on.
They’re working on what? Codeberg comments on fdroid?
Oh thats cool. The OP is talking about f-droid comments though, does f droid have gitlab/gitea commemts?
Forgejo is a soft fork of Gitea, not the other way around
