That's a huge wall of text to still entirely miss the point. Forgejo is NOT a free service. It is an open-source project that you can host yourself. Do you know what will happen if Forgejo ends up enshitifying? They'll get forked. Why do I expect that? Because that's literally how Forgejo was created. It forked Gitea. Why don't I think that will happen any time soon? It has massive community buy-in, including the Fedora Project. You being a PM explains a lot about being confidently incorrect.
So then it makes sense that you didn't read it where I very specifically and intentionally touch the subjects you speak about.
If you're not going to read what people reply, then don't even bother throwing your opinion around. Just makes you look like an idiot tbh.
