I am already self-hosting a lot of things for 15+ years now, including git, but I am looking for a solution like Github that is federalized (not Gitlab or the like).
I want people to be able to open issues, PRs, comment, fork or star without having to create an account on my server. Is there anything like that?
I saw radicle.xyz but I am not sure if that is what I want. Basically a lightweight git+ActivityPub + web frontend is what I am looking for. I think. No CI/CD or other fancy features required.
Excuse me for being uninformed, but what is this about a corporate Gitea takeover?
That is a bit hyperbole. The domains and trademarks where transferred to a for-profit entity (owned by the main devs) and all that was done in relative secrecy which didn’t go down well with the open-source community.
However for the time being nothing much changed and Forgejo is more of a “just in case” soft-fork.
