First, they restricted code search without logging in so I’m using sourcegraph But now, I cant even view discussions or wiki without logging in.
It was a nice run

Just so you’re aware, Gitea was taken over by a for-profit company. Which is why it was forked and Forgejo was formed. If you don’t use Github as a matter of principle, then you should switch to Forgejo instead.
Damnit of course it was. Thanks for letting me know, now I’ll have to redo my 100+ repos.
If there’s a fork, it’ll probably be an easy migration/in-place upgrade.
My understanding is the fork isn’t doing much but waiting to see if gitea turns to shit, pushing all their changes upstream. If you use docker I’ve heard you can just pull the new image and it simply drops in, no migration needed.
Changing the remote should be fairly trivial with enough bash skills
It’s more I don’t have them all checked out, and a good chunk are mirrors of github, so I’ll have to list out each one and push to a new remote, mirrors will have to be setup again, and I also use the container and package registries. I’m pretty embedded. It’s not impossible, but it’s a weekend project for sure.
If it was just forked, cant you just switch the package/container-image and be done?
Depends on how much it was changed I’m guessing. Fingers crossed I could just flip it over, but who knows
Simply changing the binary worked for me. Been more than 1 month and no migration issues.
It does still show gitea branding, however.
Oh man, thanks for this. I had no idea, having used gitea for years now.
did they get federation working?
Nothing usable yet unfortunately, but they seem to be making good progress: https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/issues/59
Thanks for the link! As long as it’s being worked on I feel comfortable spinning up an instance. I’ve been meaning to do gitea for a while so I’m glad I waited.
