SourceHut is listed as both Free and Freemium

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

"SourceHut" is listed in Free, and "sourcehut" is listed in Freemium.

I'm not exactly sure what the definition of Freemium is. As far as I know, SourceHut's model is that there is an officially endorsed public hosted instance (maintainers are supposed to pay, although at this time payment only affects CI and the IRC bouncer), but the software itself is fully AGPL-3.0-only. I believe that this belongs in Free because there are no proprietary components and it's not "Open Core" etc., but I'd appreciate another look before editing this part.

Forge (software) → Collaborative software development platform – It's hard to get Google Ngram statistics for this one, but I think that Forge is a relatively obscure term in this context. I think a more descriptive name is better suitable here. PhotographyEdits (talk) 21:07, 27 March 2026 (UTC) — Relisting. 1isall (talk | contribs) 00:19, 4 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Oppose: I think that Forge as a term is not that obscure, considering that it features in the names of multiple such products and services. On the other hand, I feel that the proposed title is overly long, unrecognisable and may not be precise, as something like Jira may also fit it, but is obviously not a forge.

Fair enough. Will not move the page. Jira is also not a generic term but a specific product. PhotographyEdits (talk) 15:18, 7 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
