Hopefully forgejo will have federation released soon which will make interacting across projects easier. Although maybe that will just encourage the bots to use it, so can't win really.
I think there can be a difference. github encourages this behavior, even provides the tools for it. but if the forgejo community stands strongly against it from the beginning (users reporting true slop, moderators deleting and banning them, admins defederating from intentional slop sources), then maybe that kind will stay away from the platform
