   For anyone curious why they should choose one over the other:

      Thanks! Currently going through this decision process myself.

         I suggest browsing through the release notes of the last 4-5 versions to see what you like more.

            I&#x27;d argue project values, license and health are way more important.

               Would you also argue that the technical quality, efficiency, capacity, performance etc. of a piece of machinery, too, is way less important than the social and political values of its manufacturer? Say, a piece of medical equipment used in a hospital to keep a patient alive.

                  I have a feeling that nobody will die (most likely) for choosing forgejo or gitea... Apples and oranges...

                     But from the downvoting, announcing evaluation of these is contentious. Oh HN!

                     I&#x27;m sure nobody will, but I disagree that it&#x27;s an apples and oranges thing. But for you I&#x27;m willing to instead offer an example of a CNC machine making parts for... anything. The question and comparison is at its core still just as valid and relevant. Is the result way less important than &quot;feeling good&quot; about the solution?

               Release notes would inform my view of project health and priorities

                  The project’s values as well, much more so than any “values statement”. The proof is in the pudding, not in the marketing speak.
