Another “Differences in Linux” question :)
I often wonder, what exactly is the difference between this services?
I understand, that:
- github.com is a company, where as gitlab and forgejo are (softwares)?
- They all “manage/wrap/interface with” git?
Questions:
- what software does github.com use?
- whats the difference between them (pros/cons)?
- what about self-hosting? Possibilities/Preferences?
As always, thanks beforehand :)
In the same order you asked:
Safe, easy to use, polished and reliable ; Someone else tried to emulate the first one success ; Poorly executed open-source alternative you can selfhost.
All of them speak the git and are essentially web UIs made to manage it and the creation of repositories and setting up permissions.
