Try its fork forgejo instead.

Why?

In 2022, maintainers (…) founded the company Gitea Limited with the goal of offering hosting services using (proprietary) versions of Gitea. (…). The shift away from a community ownership model received some resistance from some contributors, which led to the formation of a software fork called Forgejo. From Wikipedia.

But check that it has all the features you need because it lags behind gitea in some aspects (like ci).

There’s been a hostile takeover at Gitea and it’s now run / owned by a for-profit company. The developers forked the project under the name Forgejo and are continuing the work under a non-profit. See also: Their introduction post and a page comparing the two projects. Feel free to look up more, since I haven’t familiarized myself with the incident all that much myself. Either way though, maybe consider using Forgejo instead of Gitea.

Hostile not quite, as it was a group of core developers. But still a shitty move, especially how it was done in secrecy and disregarding over devs and the larger community.

I started running my own Gitea instance because I wanted a private place to host my Obsidian notes.

I don’t have the time to read the article now, but permit a question: what do you use Gitea for?

I’m holding my dotfiles on a SSH server, clone/push over SSH, and it’s enough to do Git. I don’t need a ticket system, or wiki or anything (I use plaintext notes).

</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">$ git clone srv:/path/to/repo

4rkal OP ,

Great question

I always found setting up a git server from scratch to be quite confusing and I also like the webui that gitea offers.

But recently I have also started moving some of my github projects there so having a link (with a readme and everything) that I can share with others is important.
