That kind of makes sense for disaster planning though.

If Gitea discovered some massive CVE, and volentarily went dark to fix it... They would want their code and fix hosted somewhere else.

Mirroring the code to github (or somewhere else) would solve that problem just as well.

Not dogfooding your own product seems like a huge red flag to me.

There's clearly the intention to self-host, they seem to be waiting for support to ingest data from a GitHub data export which seems pretty reasonable.

Yes, this is exactly the case. Lots of data, and low ratelimits don't mix. All except for the main repo have already migrated to gitea.com
