I’m wondering why most FOSS projects choose Codeberg which is another (although FOSS aligned) centralised forge instead of something like this.

  Not everyone wants to run their own infra. But at least Forgejo works on the distributed network of projects, so in the future it should be easy to migrate if needed.

    Has Forgejo added some sort of decentralised protocol? I missed that if so, that would be a great feature.

        Ah, thank you, that's why I couldn't find it on the site.

  Because Codeberg is a proper non-profit association ("Codeberg e.V.") which makes it more than "just another forge". With that said, I do wish decentralized/distributed forges was used more, git unsurprisingly fits well with it.

  As a user of the software, I would rather use HTTPS and not install extra applications just to read-only consume software from the internet.
