a) I had not heard of gogs, interesting. I do love the sheer number of options we currently have for developer oriented services.

b) I don't understand why this particular link has been submitted. Is there anything remarkable here, or some context I'm missing?

I'm guessing they're trying to get people to contribute to the project.

Unfortunately, regardless what the wiki says, the CR is not strict and because of that the code quality is not that great.

I also think the biggest issue when contributing to this project is that the owner clearly does not speak english as a first language. I know that doesn't invalidate the quality of his code (though the quality speaks for itself as not great) nor his feedback (though it makes it harder to understand), but his poor english results in everything just being harder.

I don't read it as legit critics. It's OK what some projects have core team members coming from different cultures. I find it fascinating and think we should embrace that.

On the other hand, it could be read as something between the lines: "the project actually is not community driven/owned and all the code must get accepted by single person. and you see some personal difficulties there, just because of language/culture barrier".. In that case, yeah, I see your point.

I really wonder why did this end up in the front page. The homepage of the repo would be a lot interesting.
