Could you please give an example? I assume you do not refer to the umbrella concept because I think it is quite clear that is not in scope.
I think forgefriends occupies the space that is defined by https://coding.social/. And there could be an intermediate space such as forges.social to be defined as you suggest:
all it needs is a different name and voila ![]()
- Mission: forges.social dedicates to making all functionality of code forges available for anyone to freely use and extend.
- Vision: forges.social allows all people to participate in the creation of the free software projects that serve our commons.
forgefriends would then be under this forges.social umbrella.
