Forgejo is a community-driven Free Software project under the umbrella of Codeberg, a non-profit association in Germany, that develops a code forge platform similar to GitHub, and that is a drop-in replacement for Gitea.

For those wondering what the intention is. This is from their FAQ:
Why fork Gitea?
In October 2022 the domains and trademark of Gitea were transferred to a for-profit company without knowledge or approval of the community. Despite writing an open letter, the takeover was later confirmed. The goal of Forgejo is to continue developing the code with a healthy democratic governance.

So will this be the beginning of the end of gitea?

how is the name pronounced?
Forgejo (/forˈd͡ʒe.jo/ – inspired by forĝejo, the Esperanto word for forge)
I don’t speak Esperanto :-)

There’s no live instance yet, though, right? At least I can’t find a link to any on that web site.
Not yet. They just started, but I thought it’s interesting for the community here.
