Don’t use Gitea, use Forgejo - it’s a hard fork of Gitea after Gitea became a for-profit venture (and started gating their features behind a paywall).
Codeberg has switched to Forgejo as well.
Also, there’s some promising progress being made towards ActivityPub federation in Forgejo! Imagine a world where you can comment on issues and send/receive pull requests on other people’s projects, all from the comfort of a small homeserver.
Ohh, my bad! I thought the person you were replying to was asking about Gitea. Yeah, Forgejo seems truly free and also looks like it has a strong governance structure that is likely to keep things that way.

ActivityPub integration on git remote repos sounds very interesting. Thanks for sharing that, I’ll definetely take a look at Codeberg/Forgejo.
Can’t wait for forge federation, it’s super annoying that I need an account for each individual instance just to report a bug
What features are paywalled?
None?
If you need action runners you have to ask for them which is fair as it’s expensive.
If you self host it’s all free.
This sadly isn’t true anymore - they now have Gitea Enterprise, which contains additional features not available in the open source version.
I think we were talking about Forego, but now I’m not sure.
To be clear Forego is what I was stating didn’t have pay walled features. I know Enterprise auth works, but I haven’t used the others yet.

From here:
radicle.xyz checks those boxes, but it’s gossip protocol, not activitypub.
Still cool, though.
doesnt have issue tracker
It does, but it’s a little obtuse to use.
oh it must of benn a new update
