Concerning other projects less known than kernel I would have to talk with each contributor to find his motivation (and with all due respect, I know too little about Codeberg … we still stick with #Gitea https://github.com/openSUSE/openSUSE-git/issues/36). It could be very interesting to ask.
I finally enabled #Cloudflare proxy for https://git.nicelycomposed.codes
The reason it was disabled was a large file upload limitation on Cloudflare's free tier. I was not able to push large #Docker images to the registry on #Gitea instance.
Now I have a local #DNS record for the Gitea instance pointing directly to the #Zoraxy reverse proxy by its local IP address. So, when my CI jobs push images, the data bypasses Cloudflare's proxy with its limitations.
AI crawlers, on the other hand, are blocked by Cloudflare.
My #Proxmox node should become cooler now.
And yes, whoever uses #discord for #documentation and #versioning instead of a goddam #git [doesn't have to be @github / #GitHub or @gitlab / #GitLab or @Codeberg / #Codeberg or even @gitea / #Gitea - just use any git and write down your documentation in a useable format like #Markdown or goddamn ASCII plain text FFS] should be banned for life from #coding, working in #IT or contribute to #FLOSS.
We’re excited to announce the release of Gitea v1.24.3!
This update includes numerous bug fixes and important security improvements. We strongly recommend all users upgrade as soon as possible to ensure stability and protection.

#Gitea #Git #OpenSource
Hi, I set up an Gitea server on my servers in the EU powered by my own solar power and I want to share it with you. You can upload your repository there or mirror it or help me to mirror major repos there. Feel free to use it as well for your projects.
On today's edition of #selfhosting #homelab , I installed #KitchenOwl to my server to replace the ad-infested cozi app my partner and I use for a synchronised grocery and recipe list app.
I also noticed that in the year or two I've been running this homelab, both #k3s and many of my docker images are getting dated.
Surprisingly, updating k3s was extremely seamless (especially since I documented the flags I used on install)
I then installed #renovate to go through my #gitea server and open PRs that notify me of docker image (bonus: and nuget package!) Updates on a cron job.
@eclecticpassions why not self hosted #gitea?
Finally concluded the switch to Forgejo on my private git instance !
It was easier than expected, given this wonderful downgrading file for Gitea

Now onto the Forgejo adventure, and trying to enable the federation feature !
Wow ok, done
That was so easy
Kudos to this blog post for the amazing tutorial : https://xeiaso.net/blog/2025/anubis/
Managed to also quickly add a grafana dashboard to reflect some metrics, and those numbers give some perspective to the insane spam all the internet is under, just to generate more slop
Ok, time to deploy Anubis in front of Gitea, I'm done with those FAANG oligarchs scraping my repos 24/7 to check if anything changed...
F*ck off.
But that also means Gitea might get unstable for some time, woops

Wenn ich gerne meinen #forgejo / #gitea server als primäre #git senke nutzen mag, aber dennoch nach #github mirrore, damit andere menschen sich erfreuen und mitmachen können.
wie sorge ich dafür, dass deren pull requests bei github ebenso zu mir nach forgejo / gitea fliessen wie meine änderungen es heute schon von forgejo nach github tun?
@j12t Despite its past friendliness to the open-source community, I’ve been hearing that #gitlab now has a stronger commercial focus.
While #activitypub doesn’t align with that revenue growth, AI integration does:
https://about.gitlab.com/direction/ai-powered/ai_framework/
At #fosdem 2025, I heard many communities appreciate #forgejo and #codeberg as embodying what the open-source world had hoped to get from #gitlab and #gitea.
As far as I know, #forgejo is committed to implementing federation, which is already a feature in development:

https://forgefed.org/
It's time to announce GitNex 9.0.0 — our most UI-heavy update yet.
Features
- Redesigned home screen
- Markdown alert support
- Repository sorting (requires Forgejo 11.x)
- Revamped login screen UI
- Revamped app settings
Last year, I wrote two articles about self-hosted Git systems, specifically Gitea. One covers the installation on your own server, while the other expands on it with workflow actions and CI. Maybe this will be helpful to someone. You can check them out below:
