Gitea presenting at Forgefriends federation webinar, 19 January

Forge federation: How forge friends want to liberate your code 🚀

On 19 January at 10.00 UTC+1 the Forgefriends community is organizing a webinar to introduce anyone that is interested to the importance and benefits of adding federation to code forges such as Gitea, Gitlab, Github and any other forge that implements Fediverse-based interoperability.

Gitea is the first project to be a true "forge friend". Federation support allows FOSS projects to be liberated from proprietary platforms that lock people in by network effects and FOMO. Forge friends set your code free, and allows anyone to interact with it from their own platform of choice. Just like it works for email, you can choose your own favourite environment, and still interact with a project elsewhere on the web to file issues, merge code and track progress.

There's an enormous amount of potential that this development unleashes. But whether opportunities are grasped and how fast the "forge friends" vision materializes depends on all of you. The forgefriends community needs your help, whether it is technical in nature or otherwise. Anyone can contribute.
