It seems that most information that I can find on the subject is about a year old, so I am wondering if anyone has any up-to-date info.
forgejo (gitea fork) should have federation i heard https://forgejo.org/2023-01-10-answering-forgejo-federation-questions/
Didn’t Gitea fork from gogs? What’s the goto lightweight (so no Gitlab) self-hosted Git host nowadays? Difficult to keep track.
Yes, Gitea is a hard-fork of Gogs and started years ago. Forgejo is a soft-fork of Gitea when the primary authors of Gitea created a company of the same name to provide paid support (there’s history there you can look up) but Gitea remains free and open source. Forgejo, supported by Codeberg, is a community fork and will upstream to Gitea.
Gitea/Forgejo is a great option, they recently even added build actions which are compatible with Github Actions.
If you turn on Federation in Gitea app.ini settings then WebFinger will work. Nothing else is currently implemented.
Had a hard time finding any recent information either, but with the recent release of 1.20 I’ve noticed that an Activitypub endpoint got added in the API and that permissions for it can be added to tokens. Seems very rudimentary so far though.
