I wish this supports current Federation plans on Gitea
We’ve reached out to the Gitea team regarding this and we are optimistic about a positive response from them. But we are working inbuilt support for Gitea(try looking up @!realaravinth!tmp!issue!3@dev.batsense.net on Pleroma*)
also helps to federate NotABug
I’m not sure how different Gitea is from Gogs but support should be trivial but we plans for official support only for Gitea, Source Hut, GitLab and GitHub at the moment.
*: dev.batsense.net is running on my development machine so availability might be spotty :)
ForgeFlux is scaffolding for native federation. I hope federation becomes popular and forges modify and adapt ForgeFlux for more robust federation capabilities(or implement native federation). But I have a feeling that we won’t see native/improved federation on GitHub very soon which will cause friction for GitHub users participating in federated ecosystem and hopefully motivate them to migrate.
I hope projects on GitHub migrate to a libre forge, but that also won’t happen for a very long time. At least this way, non-GitHub users can participate in projects hosted on GitHub without depending on someone to represent them.

If GitHub is supported in the Federation, would not that mean that most people there won’t just move?
It is true that could allow other people to contribute to projects there though.
