Just googled to see if there was an activitypub git host yet and came across this claiming gitlab are working on it at the moment and that it's available as an experimental feature

Seems odd to me that people aren't talking about this more here, has anyone tried it and if so is it any good?

I think the general idea is discovery. At the moment if you want to look for a project you go to github and search. If you go to my gitea instance you find only my 10 projects. With federation I could search my own gitea instance and find/easily clone repos from all the federate instances. To me it seems a gamechanger in making codeberg/gitea and also gitlab real competitors to github.
