git is just the source control. Pull requests, web front-end, a central server that is a single point-of-truth with policy enforcement, issue management, etc. do not come in the box with git.
GitHub provides that, as do Gitlab and others. GitHub is a Microsoft product, and MS is getting scary with the AI push.
Questionable move
It’s an open-source repository management platform that they’re self-hosting. What on earth could possibly be questionable about it?!
Self-hosting is good. Modern software is trash
What a dumb statement.
Ughhh. It’s git. Same technology.
It’s worth learning a bit more about technology.
Modern software like Lemmy, for instance?
Isn’t it just git? What’s the difference?

ForgeJo is self-hosted and simple.
Why
GitHub is no longer independent at Microsoft. It’s the logical step for self sovereignty
No longer subject to GitHub’s rules, privacy problems and shadowbans
That server software probably modern trash
Why is it probably trash
So you don’t know what you’re talking about is what you’re saying?
So “I don’t know but I’m going to shit on it anyway”
