“To preserve the community aspect of Gitea we are experimenting with creating a decentralized autonomous organization where contributors would receive benefits based on their participation such as from code, documentation, translations, and perhaps even assisting individual community members with support questions.”
Still, it’s sad that they’re wasting funds on Web3.0 bullshit rather than something sensible like ActivityPub or IPFS.
If they were some publicly traded company throwing venture capital money away, I wouldn’t give a shit. But nearly all their funding is by individual user donations. Wasting that is not cool.
