@Beowulf Why was a hard fork necessary?

@moreentropy Because of the Gitea leadership, not the community 🤔 forgejo.org/compare-to-gitea/#

@Beowulf IMHO that would justify a soft fork in case shit hits the fan.
From a user's perspective, gitea is still delivering OSS and has a history of reliably doing so. I'm not against Forgejo at all, but from what I see I just can't decide which of both is the more sustainable choice.

@moreentropy I think Forgejo has a bright future under the umbrella of Codeberg and with the core values it has.

@moreentropy
Forgejo started as a soft-fork of course. However, that was becoming more difficult and has serious challenges during development.

You can read about the background to become a hard fork in forgejo.org/2024-02-forking-fo
