Codeberg would make a better choice if we speak about EU source code forges. And Forgejo instead of Gitea, which is nowadays controversial project.

What makes Gitea controversial nowadays, I'm out of the loop.

		"Forgejo was initially created in December 2022 as a fork of Gitea. The fork occurred after a for-profit limited corporation ran by the lead maintainer of the project, Lunny Xiao, silently transferred Gitea's trademarks and operations to the company and began to establish an open-core model."[0] [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forgejo Also see: https://gitea-open-letter.coding.social/ EDIT: HN discussion on the latter: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33372471

		From a quick web-search: Apparently it was an open-source community project, but the governing organization created a for-profit entity and transferred most of the assets to that entity (brand, website, etc.). Gitea apparently still uses MIT licenses, but the community felt it was a betrayal of the open-source ethos. forgejo is a community fork of Gitea when the issues mentioned were not suitably resolved.

I was roughly familiar with Github Action/Gitea Action compatibility and had a self hosted Gitea already... I found codeberg interesting though!

		Forgejo is more or less a drop in replacement for gitea

Isn't Codeberg only for Open Source ?

Github or other commercial alternatives aren’t for closed source either anymore.

Putting closed source code on github is basically asking them to launder it through LLMs

But selfhosted Gitea, which OP chose, IS good for closed source. And codeberg is not.

		Alternative of that is self hosted forgejo

Codeberg is immense buuut it's only intended for open source projects really, so might not be a good fit for all.
