Mambaforge is discouraged. Use Miniforge instead.

See https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge#miniforge-pypy3:

With the release of Miniforge3-23.3.1-0, that incorporated the changes in conda-forge/miniforge#277, the packages and configuration of Mambaforge and Miniforge3 are now identical. The only difference between the two is the name of the installer and, subsequently, the default installation directory.

Given its wide usage, there are no plans to deprecate Mambaforge. If at some point we decide to deprecate Mambaforge, it will be appropriately announced and communicated with sufficient time in advance.

As of September 2023, the new usage of Mambaforge is thus discouraged. Bug reports specific to Mambaforge will be closed as won't fix.
