For example:

  1. Is there an alternative to GitHub Desktop that works for Codeberg or do I just have to use the CLI for it?

  2. If I have to use the CLI, is using git for Codeberg any different than using it for GitHub?

Among those limitless git guis I started trying out sourcegit and it seems pretty good. To date magit is the only other one I’ve tried, and it’s also really good.

Magit is built for emacs. Unless, OP is willing to see the positives of emacs and willing to learn a new editor. Switching won't be that simple.

Well there are a lot of positives… anyway I just mentioned it as a point of reference. If you know Magit, you know it’s good.
