I get that but it still sounds awesome 😉 Of course Gitea federating with other Gitea (or Forgejo) instances would be awesome and make it a right candidate to host another fediverse project.

We also hope to migrate development to Gitea once federation is implemented.

That is awesome to hear! Lemmy federating with the code forge it’s hosted on sounds awesome!

Uh reading your third link, no they are not reluctant to discuss it. That whole discussion sadly was about how the original “proposal” was framed, and I have to agree with that person that it wasn’t “proposed” but more stated as a demand.
