Forget "gif" vs "jif" debate. How does one pronounce "Forgejo"?

According to their FAQ, they say it's supposed to be pronounced /forˈd͡ʒe.jo/ and provide an audio clip: https://forgejo.org/static/forgejo.mp4
To me that sounds like "for-jay-oh".
damn, soft g + not a silent e + German j.
I would've pronounced it forge + Joe before this. would have only gotten a third of those things right.
For-jail-o?
I thought it was a play on "forge", I was wrong.
It's the Esperanto word for "forge", according to the FAQ.
