    All the companies that recently switched their products from open source licenses to non-free source-available licenses (like BSL and SSPL) were companies like this that offered hosted services. Their argument was that the big cloud companies were using their product to make money and causing them to lose business. Should we worry about a similar future for gitea?

    It may be premature. But this is the gitea’s second move in that direction, after transferring the project’s control to a crypto-based for-profit company. Was Codeberg e.V (the nonprofit behind forgejo fork and Codeberg) justified in doubting gitea?
