@codecat @dpk We're always looking for new contributors.

@dpk @codecat I can't answer on plans, but in theory this is currently already a configuration option that can be toggled. (Don't recommend that, though, see Forgejo's FAQ – authored by yours truly.)

@dpk 100% agreed, so that's like one fourth of the presidium.

@magicmarcy @Codeberg One might say that they offer highly-processed corn flakes with chocolate chips and lots of added sugar, we offer muesli. We know that some will continue preferring the former instead of muesli (not everyone might want to eat that instead), but we can talk about how you might want to pick something with less added sugar and that we offer that.

Hm, if I weren't as tired I could've brought on "slop" into the comparison. Eh, whatever.

@magicmarcy @Codeberg We don't see ourselves as "a GitHub alternative" because we play by different rules for the benefit of free and open-source projects, and that is what we market ourselves with (and that was the goal we were trying to make).

@magicmarcy @Codeberg P.S. The point you're trying to make under a post speaking out against slopification is undermined in my eyes due to the profile picture, unfortunately.

@magicmarcy @Codeberg The infrastructure is free-to-use, but comes at the "cost" of giving back to the community - those are indeed our house rules, and this is how we use non-profit (donated) money as per our statutes.

Besides, other platforms are more monetarily expensive and don't offer you the entire source code under a free and open-source license to self-host if you don't agree with their price, right?
