Never forget the sudden GitLab price-hike and flavor feature changes just a few years ago. I was literally about to go from free to paid, when the pricing doubled nearly overnight. I left for Gitea.

- Grombobulous 2mo agoHave you looked at migrating to Forgejo? It’s a fork of Gitea though I think it has diverged significantly since the fork.
- chhs 2mo agoI migrated my Gitea instance to Forgejo, it was pretty painless
- globular-toast 2mo agoI accidentally upgraded my Gitea instance beyond the fork which makes this more difficult...
- selfhoster1312 2mo agoHad the same experience, but the import feature works really well (with `ALLOWED_DOMAINS = *` in app.ini). Bad news is i had to do this individually for each repo. Good news is it went great and fast, even for private repos.
- zImPatrick 2mo agoMy gitea instance was only ~6 DB migrations beyond where Forgejo was at when I decided to switch, so I just undo‘d those and upgraded anyways. Works just fine, but I was really lucky that they weren‘t any big migrations. I guess isn‘t really as feasible anymore.
- Jnr 2mo agoI did and then rolled back. Gitea is far ahead in CI/CD features, which is the main thing I want from my own git forge. And they also seem to keep adding more meaningful features, not just refactoring to keep some federation thing working.
- Grombobulous 2mo agoInteresting, thanks for the perspective. I’ve heard about both in various ways. Obviously some people like one over the other.
