and a measured (IMHO) response to it. (BTW, do your self a favour and change tabs with that site open :)

It’s a tough spot, Codeberg has found themselves in and I wish them luck. But beyond that, this is (yet) another reminder that in 2026, if you don’t self host it, the cloud is just someone else computer
What do you mean? They are perfectly in their right to enforce this rule, even if they couldn’t prove that their reasoning made sense. They are not obligated to host your slop
I agree they are within their right to do it, I’m saying it legally wouldn’t survive a challenge in court the way they implemented it.
No need for your combative tone or assuming I have slop that needs hosting.
Where were you during the nineties and early 2000?
Man were there brutal unjust lawsuits that broke people. Remember that 11 yo girl vs Madonna? The Pirate Bay? And so on.
