Is there no git hosting service left that isn’t pushing censorship and fascism? I think I should just start self-hosting at this point.

    Is it really “censorship” if they openly state which shit they don’t want to have near their platform? If I opened any kind of platform myself, these two would be right behind “illegal activities” and “hate speech”. And I’d be proud to place them there.

    If you have issues with not being able to put LLM shit or crypto “currency” scams anywhere, then you should look into selfhosting.

    no they didn’t. it’s right there in the thread; they reserve the right to remove any project that “damages the reputation of codeberg”, with crypto scams listed as an example.

        exhibit b, the post in question:

        Edit:

        and just for good measure, the actual text of the ToS, with the change highlighted:

        You must not share any content that’s expressing hate or encouraging violence towards a person or group for any reason. We also explicitly do not tolerate:

        • Discriminatory behaviour towards and promoting oppression, especially of marginalized groups on grounds of ethnicity, gender, disability, nationality, education, age, and religion.
        • Violent nationalist propaganda, Nazi symbolism or promoting the ideology of National Socialism.
        • Mobbing, stalking, doxxing (exposing someone’s personal information), brigading (inciting a group to spam a specific place for any reason), threatening and harassment, as well as encouraging others to do those things.
        • Insults, discriminatory jokes, sexualized comments and other unwanted sexual attention.
        • Sexually obscene content, including content involving the exploitation or sexualization of minors.
        • Content that’s glorifying violence; that includes any violent material without a proper content warning.
        • Content that harms the reputation of Codeberg, such as cryptocurrency related projects.

    I mean, why not? I’ve been thinking about it myself too (for other reasons).
