It's an open-source repository management platform that they're self-hosting. What on earth could possibly be questionable about it?!
Self-hosting is good. Modern software is trash
Isn’t it just git? What’s the difference?
git is just the source control. Pull requests, web front-end, a central server that is a single point-of-truth with policy enforcement, issue management, etc. do not come in the box with git.
GitHub provides that, as do Gitlab and others. GitHub is a Microsoft product, and MS is getting scary with the AI push.
ForgeJo is self-hosted and simple.
