The project website is at https://forgefriends.org and there's more details about how it works at https://forgefriends.org/blog/2021/11/22/what-is-forgefriends

GREAT! Finding out this toot is making me seriously think about finally packing up my stuff in #GitHub, and switching to a #Gitea instance, self-hosted via #Yunohost.

I know it is a lot to ask, but is there an ETA for the implementation of full federation?

Some pointers for long-term sustainability:

* Elinor Ostrom, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elinor_Ostrom
** the first seven of the eight "design principles" seem to be in place - primary resource = developers' and users' time investment; secondary resources = physical servers + internet; number 8 sounds like #Fedeproxy

Ok now I'm tagging you Humane Tech and Dachary but I'm also tagging you Autistic Anthropologist because I thought maybe you would find what Humane Tech tried to convey to me, maybe you'll find this interesting too as I'm assuming you're into #Neurodiversity.

This is a topic about #Accessibility that "Humane Tech Now" brought up in regards to a SoftwareProject called #FedeProxy(it's like a "federated github" project)
