They’ll probably just fork forgejo add some slight “ai agentic” bullshit and market it as their own product.

I was going to say hopefully the forgejo licence doesn’t allow that but then again, OpenAI have shown they don’t really care about copyright or anything like that

    Forgejo is licensed under GPLv3, so I think it isn't possible to do so

    Correct me if I wrong, but the GPL has the weakpoint of web distribution in the sense that a backend is not shipped to the client, so you can keep a forked GPL product without publishing back. The AGPL was made for this (and the SSPL (I think) is like any network interface needed should be published too).
