At work we've started switching to codeberg (which uses forgejo) and honestly it's a breath of fresh air compared to GitHub. It's blazing fast compared to GitHub and has feature parity with our needs.

I have (almost completely) moved my business from GitHub to Forgejo as well. I’m deploying an instance at home as well.

It’s shocking how bloated and slow GitHub is even for basic actions when you compare it to Forgejo running just your own stuff.

Bonus: if you can manage to reliably backup a database and a filesystem, you can then backup your forge. Outside GH Enterprise there is still no restorable backup option inside GitHub.

Not an option for the majority of companies as it only allows open source repositories as far as I'm aware.
