It just sounds like they didn’t understand the relationship between Forgejo and Codeberg. I didn’t either into I looked it up just now. IMHO their comment is best interpreted as being about Codeberg. People running their own instances of Forgejo are tangential to the topic at hand.
Either way, their comment is out of place. A Codeberg comment when the original comment was pointing people to Forgejo.
