> Also gitea is a much more lightweight option and can use sqlite for db. Much easier to deploy on a rpi

Worth mentioning Forgejo as well (https://forgejo.org), which is Codeberg's fork of Gitea. Same features and as lightweight as Gitea. Hard-forked a couple of months ago after some transparency concerns from the new parent company that owns Gitea now.

Isn't it just the same thing with a different name? Why is it worth mentioning at this point in time?

Because functionality isn’t the only thing everyone cares about, I use Forgejo for ideological reasons and so do probably most people since it’s mainly an ideological fork.

Why would it not be worth mentioning? The question is quite strange.

The project and community might be worthwhile, but as long as the product is the exact same, I don't see what there is to mention. I'm excited to see what the future holds though, more attention in this space sure sounds good.

Unless my information is out of date?
