Unpaid community work is best!

Context: An external contributor is taking it upon himself to implement ActivityPub and possibly ForgeFed in Gitlab after Gitlab ignored the issue for more than 7 years
ForgeFed is an ActivityPub Extension to allow cross-forge (git server) issues, pull requests etc. without having to create an account on each server. Forgejo (a Gitea soft-fork) is actively working on this integration.
Whoa! I didn’t even know I could wish for such a future.
Check out codeberg for a non-profit host for (instance of?) Forgejo.
Having this feature would be very useful. Many big open source projects run their own gitlab instance, which add extra frictions for contributing because you need yet another gitlab account just for those projects.
Exactly, I think I have ~5 gitlab accounts and ~4 Gitea/Forgejo accounts.
