reCaptcha is a no-go of course. Gitea also has image captchas but from issues it seems it's really not so reliable at keeping spam out
@f0x There is an open issue for adding „honeypot“ form fields and Codeberg is aware of it, so there is a chance it gets implemented soon-ish?
@tastytea i'm implementing it now, with a hacky proxy so I don't have to interact with the gitea codebase itself :)
