[Gitea](https://gitea.io) is self-hostable free software for software development, built on top of Git. Codeberg is powered by Gitea. Compared to Codeberg, Gitea is not one service, but free software to help you build your own. Everyone can install their own Gitea instance to host their own projects. There are also public Gitea instances as well as Codeberg you can use, but make sure you find a site that is actively maintained and updated, and that you trust the provider.
Beware: The official Gitea instance at [Gitea.com](https://gitea.com) is only meant for development of Gitea and related products and not public use!
[Forgejo](https://forgejo.org) is self-hostable free software for software development, built on top of Git. Codeberg is powered by Forgejo, which is in turn a soft-fork of Gitea. Compared to Codeberg, Forgejo is not one service, but free software to help you build your own. Everyone can install their own Forgejo instance to host their own projects. There are also public Forgejo instances as well as Codeberg you can use, but make sure you find a site that is actively maintained and updated, and that you trust the provider.

We recommend choosing a shared instance [to save time, money and energy](https://blog.codeberg.org/community-maintenance-matters.html),
ideally run by a community of people (like Codeberg).
By choosing a Gitea instance, you can easily migrate away from Codeberg in case you don't like it.
