From a source code perspective, moving is as easy as pushing it to another platform. Everything uses git under the hood.
However, all the project mgmt stuff like issues and PRs and releases aren’t as easy
Its not "easy" but its not that difficult either, I've overseen a migration from a gitea instance to github (coporate policy, not my choice) that had information that needed to be retained for regulatory purposes. it took a bit of work, but only a single engineer working on it on and off around other tasks for a few weeks including testing and dry runs.
Yeah I know gitea has a mature api and I suspect it’s GitHub compatible. So any mid level dev should smash it out. Especially now with a little help from a magic pattern machine.
