That's what I said, but indeed in a very bad way :)
No, it's not what you said. Gitea is a fork of Gogs. Forgejo is a fork of Gitea. Codeberg folks forked Gitea to create forgejo.

I think they mean the "just" in "Do you just want to host repositories?", implying that it's never "just" hosting repositories, and the needs will continue to grow beyond what the simple solution offers.
If they do, then migrate to a provider that offers what you need at that time. It's not like adding a new remote is hard.

#334for local Canadian based workflows that want sovereignty, I recommend https://about.worktree.ca
I was wondering when reading their sovereignty docs why I wouldn’t just use OVH as it is a French company instead of a USA based company, and lo and behold they are just reselling OVH.
I have used OVH personally and it has pretty good prices, but over aggressive DoS protection. Some of my workloads were shut down because OVH internal tools decided that what I was doing must have been a DoS.
As a Canadian I welcome a Canadian owned cloud provider, but it is a huge endeavour to build that platform up from scratch.
It does seem kind of weird that they are building both a CI system and a cloud, seems like they should pick one.

I haven’t the slightest clue why they didn’t use rook/ceph (they run on k8s) for this which not only is a very reliable block storage system, but also offers a S3 compatible API, and is proven at other cloud providers like Digital Ocean.
I wish them the best but there is no way I would put my data into there.

#337I miss something like GitHub but - hosted in the EU - without "FOSS only" limitation like codeberg. I know I can self-host forgejo but would be nice to have something like forge.eu (even paid!)
It's also self hostable, but I'm on the $2 tier and damn is it good.
