Decentralization and ditching GitHub is great and all, but not every individual FOSS project should have their own giant stack of SSO, Zulip, custom external issue tracker, Gerrit and external wiki in addition to a self hosted Forgejo...
especially when there's like <5 regular contributors!

It shouldn't be this complex and confusing to contribute to a project for no reason. And I'm not buying that a non-huge project has an actual, real reason.

If you, dear reader are thinking about overengineering your own project's development stack like this, please be aware that you will be driving external contributors away, and consider if that aligns with your goals.

@fugi well for my project (which sadly currently pretty much just me) I got a gerrit. But that is for the workflow that gerrit offers. Just hate the GitHub pull request model with a passion. And we’ll Zulip, forgejo and sso comes from the non profit sponsoring the gerrit for me

@kloenk I may personally disagree on pull requests vs. Gerrit, but that all seems completely fair to me ^^
