Now I need to consider Gitea and Codeberg. Thanks for the reminder GitLab.

Don't use Gitea, use Forgejo - it's a hard fork of Gitea after Gitea became a for-profit venture (and started gating their features behind a paywall).

Codeberg has switched to Forgejo as well.

Also, there's some promising progress being made towards ActivityPub federation in Forgejo! Imagine a world where you can comment on issues and send/receive pull requests on other people's projects, all from the comfort of a small homeserver.

ActivityPub integration on git remote repos sounds very interesting. Thanks for sharing that, I'll definetely take a look at Codeberg/Forgejo.

Can't wait for forge federation, it's super annoying that I need an account for each individual instance just to report a bug

What features are paywalled?

From here:

  • SAML
  • Branch protection for organizations
  • Dependency scanning (yes, there are other tools for this, but it's still a feature the open source version doesn't get).
  • Additional security controls for users (IP allowlisting, mandatory MFA)
  • Audit logging

None?

If you need action runners you have to ask for them which is fair as it's expensive.

If you self host it's all free.

This sadly isn't true anymore - they now have Gitea Enterprise, which contains additional features not available in the open source version.

I think we were talking about Forego, but now I'm not sure.

To be clear Forego is what I was stating didn't have pay walled features. I know Enterprise auth works, but I haven't used the others yet.

Ohh, my bad! I thought the person you were replying to was asking about Gitea. Yeah, Forgejo seems truly free and also looks like it has a strong governance structure that is likely to keep things that way.

They're required to take down content following a DMCA takedown request. It's up to the uploader to counterclaim if they're so inclined, at which point they're able to put it back up.

codeberg also removes piracy related projects... gitea is certainly an option tho
