Support for Gitea (self-hosted Git service)

[JamoCA]

I'm curious to learn whether Gisto supports Gitea. We're considering using Gitea for our internal team and Gisto seems like it would be beneficial addition. Thanks.

I must say I don't even see that it support code snippets. Is it?

I know I'm necro-posting here ~2 years+ too late, but am I wrong in my understanding that Gists are really just Git repos? Also, since Gitea is FOSS too, a "Gist-type" feature enhancement with a Gisto frontend is probably doable and sounds like a great way of building on Gisto now that I think about it. 🤔 @sanusart It would be pretty awesome if Gisto were made to be configurable with self-hosted alternatives to GitHub as a feature though 😏

Alternatively, @JamoCA: I'd recommend (if you haven't already found a solution) that your internal team consider self-hosting something like this¹ this² or this³. These are just three examples -- actually just the three first results returned from my search. There are many, many more on GitHub that you won't find searching using keywords like "gist" as the popular term is "pastebin" for these types of self-hosted snippet services on GitHub. More than a few of these projects appear (at least on their face) to be lightweight implementations, easy to configure and also provide a local client application to access them directly / paste their contents. I doubt your team would encounter any serious difficulty hosting something like this and Gitea side-by-side. (I'd check first if a git-like plugin / extension / solution hasn't already been realized by Gitea's author(s) or the Gitea community at-large which would not surprise me at all given the popularity of gists.)

Note

I'm just trying to help, but absolutely no disrespect to Gisto intended. The repository hasn't seemed too active lately, but Gisto is my favorite way of interacting with my GitHub gists ❤️ If not JamoCA, hopefully someone looking for something similar might find this helpful.
