+## Forgejo vs. Gitea: What the Community Says
+
+- [Same but different](https://forgejo.org/compare-to-gitea/). Forgejo is a hard fork of Gitea, so they share the same codebase and many features. 
+- However, Forgejo has a [more active development](https://honeypot.net/2025/05/14/gitea-vs-forgejo-development-activity.html) and a more open governance model, which allows it to evolve faster and to include features that are not present in Gitea (e.g. Forgejo Actions, ...)
+- Many people and companies move from gitea to forgejo [reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/1rlrgbw/how_are_the_differences_between_gitea_and_forgejo/).

+## Forgejo vs. Gitlab: What the Community Says
+
+- Fedora moves to Forgejo: [Fedora Magazine](https://fedoramagazine.org/fedora-moves-towards-forgejo-a-unified-decision/)
+   - The Fedora Team compared intensively GitLab and Forgejo before choosing the latter. The report is [here](https://fedora-arc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/dist-git-comparison/index.html).
+- Forgejo is prefered over GitLab by many Software specialists. 
+  One of the reasons is that GitLab is a very resource intensive application (because i.a. its written in Ruby) and that it has a very complex architecture (many services, many dependencies). 
+  Forgejo is written in Go (more efficient and state-of-the-art) and has a much simpler architecture.
