How do you pronounce this? Forge Joe? Forego? Forgeaux?
Something about a 'g' and a 'j' nearly side by side is really messing with my brain.

No way anyone will pronounce it that way.
Now that I know how it's supposed to be pronounced, that's how I'll pronounce it. So I just invalidated your argument, lol.
You did not. It's an expression and doesn't actually mean "not a single person on the planet". A few anomalies do not make it untrue. Also, you saying you will is not the same as doing it.

/for'd͡ʒe.jo/
It's Esperanto. It's supposed to be written "forĝejo" (forĝi=to forge, -ej-=place, -o=noun). The letter ĝ (for the dʒ sound, like Dj in Django, or J in John) is supposed to be written as gx without diacritics. But I assume "forgxejo" would have confused non-Esperantists even more.

So ... forjejo ?

#26What is gitea? Is it a Foss and self-hosted GitHub?
pretty much. Very lightweight and easy to setup too.
Benefits over (say) self-hosted Gitlab include:
1) Very, very operationally-simple deployments are available. It can run with just SQLite, no external services (e.g. database daemons, queuing systems, all the other stuff that GitLab likes to have) whatsoever.
2) It looks and feels more like Github, which is nice if you prefer that UI.
3) The site's far lighter-weight and snappier than GL, when you're using it.
4) You can (probably—workloads vary) serve 1-100 users with the dumbest possible deployment, running on a potato. It's far more resource-efficient than GL—which, it's not hard to be more resource efficient than GL, since it's an absolute beast, but Gitea comes in way under it.
Downsides:
1) Missing some stuff GL offers (like integrated CI)
2) Lacks some features that make serving at enormous scales (of the sort you almost certainly won't hit unless providing a Github/Gitlab-like service to the world) impractical.
3) Fewer just-works 3rd party integrations, especially commercial ones.

Not exactly. The official way of substituting the circumflex is with ‘h’, not ‘x’, so it would be written as ‘forghejo’, which might actually guide English speakers to the correct pronunciation.
(There are various systems to type without diacritics in Esperanto. Two of the most widely popular ones are to use the letters ‘h’ and ‘x’, and using either of those would be correct. But if one is to be regarded as the ‘default’ choice, it has to be the one with ‘h’, since that’s been codified in the language’s foundation since its early days.)

It is not a well-picked name.

Forjeyo, or rather For-Jay-(Y)o, I believe.
