I've seen some comments about how "gitlab bad" or whatnot, why do people prefer Codeberg over GitLab?

Right. Paid Gitlabs features tend to be targeted as an all in one DevOps platform for larger scale organizations. So how do you do support tickets, CI/CD, feature tracking and coordination for a portfolio of products, documentation, revision control, code reviews, security reviews, etc? In Gitlabs world the answer is Gitlab, with integrations with other enterprise software. It's HUGE. That said I've never heard of an organization (probably due to ignorance not lack of existence) actually doing all of that.

I personally I'm kind of leaning towards building a proof of concept of forgejo, tekton, and maybe Odoo to see if it can cover what my org is actually doing, but he'll we pay for tons of stuff but the amount of excell sheets floating around doing this is wild...

Ah come on, we all know as software people we can never stop the spreadsheets from being the real data interchange format ;)

Hey, at least remote works been really putting nails in the coffin of printed documents floating around.

But seriously keeping to a good set of tools, providing them at scale and some training will hopefully make the fall back to spreadsheets less attractive to at least the middle wave of adopters.
