Setting up Forgejo is not complicated, but of course this varies per person.
The 3D view is a nice gimmick, having a stable and secure VCS is more important to me.
Is gitea not stable?
No experience with Gitea, expect it to be as stable as can be.
But... Forgejo is a fork, got some nice improvements and is and will be opensource. Gitea is 'for profit '
But how can community fork possibly be on par with funded developers?
