My work self hosts Gitea because Forgejo doesn't support Windows. While I agree with Forgejo's decision, it sucks to be basically stuck with an old pre-fork version of the forge I self-host.
You mean as a server os?
Yeah, we use Windows servers primarily. Thankfully what I do doesn't require much interaction with them, though every once in a while I am subjected to SMB file sharing.
My sincere condolences
Thank you.
