AFAIK it’s a planned feature for Forgejo
Yeah, the protocol is called ForgeFed and from what I recall it will be added to Forgejo, then ported upstream to Gitea. Supposedly GitLab has commented on adopting it in the future as well.
Let's just extend SMTP instead
Mail is one of the most insecure protocols out there
Gitea is looking into joining ActivityPub as the core framework is called.
Is it not a big no-no to use Gitea now since the commercial takeover? From what I understand, Forgejo is the safe option and I am glad to hear from the other comments that it is getting support for that through ForgeFed!
Excuse me for being uninformed, but what is this about a corporate Gitea takeover?
That is a bit hyperbole. The domains and trademarks where transferred to a for-profit entity (owned by the main devs) and all that was done in relative secrecy which didn't go down well with the open-source community.
However for the time being nothing much changed and Forgejo is more of a "just in case" soft-fork.
AFAIK Gitea incorporated as a for-profit (which was supported), but there was some perceived(not intended to throw shade on any side here, just keeping it neutral) shady-ness from the perspective of the community. You can read more here in the open letter: https://gitea-open-letter.coding.social/
I know we're using codeberg for kbin.social
It's been a pretty decent experience so far, similar to GitHub but a little more basic. The markdown editor is my biggest gripe so far, it has weird backspace handling on mobile
