I think both are features that are still well off for later. First Gitea will federate with itself. But they are good points. There are so many opportunities, and so many ways to implement them. Issues might become follower-only toots, for those following a project.
The tests I have seen them working on were with Mastodon, not inter Gitea, but that might have been just to rule out implementation issues to ensure general compatibility.
I passed a link to your comment to the matrix chatroom, and the person who likely wrote the text you had seen responded:
The issues themselves are represented using the standard AP Note type, but Mastodon doesn’t seem to understand what ForgeFed tickets are iirc. Since Gitea doesn’t have threads, I guess one solution could be to render Mastodon-generated comments as quote replies on Gitea.
There was more discussion on supporting threading after that comment.
