[AIT] The Codeberg ban on LLM content

Right - I see the other topic has been locked / author hasn’t returned to follow community rules.

Here’s the original topic news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49003386

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

Frankly, I don’t see where the whole big deal of this story is.

People who don’t like codeberg can just go somewhere else (even back to github) and/or found/support an alternative that better suits their needs.

It’s not like the world needs to have one git hosting service to rule them all, it’s not like there must be free ones (entitled much?), and it’s not like whatever service happens to be the new “cool” one must be neutral as to what they host.

BTW, although to my knowledge their policy is not enforced super-strictly, codeberg has never been neutral in this regard — see 1 and 2
