This is great to hear! I’ll check it out.
How is it for usability (other than speed) compared to GH. Given that most/all devs are already comfortable in GH. What are the downsides in your experience?

A bit late on my reply here, sorry.
There are minor clumsy points here and there in the UI, but nothing major and nothing that’s a stumbling block.
It’s hard to paint a perfect comparison without using the same features but all the basics are there and working.
The version we have in use doesn’t support a gist functionality but the last I looked there was a PR for a similar feature with a less-GH—lawyer-baiting name. That was the biggest thing for me.
It has a GH Actions compatible rubber system too.
It’s shocking how bloated and slow GitHub is even for basic actions when you compare it to Forgejo running just your own stuff.
Bonus: if you can manage to reliably backup a database and a filesystem, you can then backup your forge. Outside GH Enterprise there is still no restorable backup option inside GitHub.
