Thank you (switched to an lemmy.ml account because I haven’t been able to comment or post on lemmy.world for over a week)
Not really specific skills, I’m just a hands on learner/tinkerer. I’ve been messing with self hosting for around three years now, so spinning up new docker services is fairly easy (fairly. I still have a lot to learn about docker). In doing so, I’ve used and referred to github a lot, and even used git to clone repositories for self hosting a service, but beyond that, I hadn’t looked into it as it didn’t seem relevant to me at the time.
And thank you for the Forgejo information! I will look into that and compare to see which one I’d like to use. Coincidentally I just saw today or yesterday that Forgejo has gone for a hard fork.
