They’ll probably just fork forgejo add some slight “ai agentic” bullshit and market it as their own product.
I was going to say hopefully the forgejo licence doesn’t allow that but then again, OpenAI have shown they don’t really care about copyright or anything like that
Correct me if I wrong, but the GPL has the weakpoint of web distribution in the sense that a backend is not shipped to the client, so you can keep a forked GPL product without publishing back. The AGPL was made for this (and the SSPL (I think) is like any network interface needed should be published too).

Was self-hosting gitlab or foregejo not an option?

Forgejo is licensed under GPLv3, so I think it isn't possible to do so

Probably they'll try that millenary genAI technique...

Those aren’t “agentic” enough.

It was but then how could they pitch that to investors?

"What could be worse than MICROSOFT overseeing open source software? Wait no! It was a rhetorical question!"

Why? Seems like a massive waste of resources. We already have several source controls

Wasting resources is literally AI's main thing

Lol true 😂

Github is not source control

No, but there are so many other systems already out there that compete with it. Why reinvent the wheel when your company is already bleeding billions?

this is used to scrape people code to train model. In recent times github restrict repo access without login so they maybe making own git platform.
