GitHub's latest transparency report reveals that the company received 2,000 valid DMCA takedown notices last year, resulting in the removal of over 31,151 projects. Targeted repositories included copied code, but also pirate apps, IPTV playlists, and many Nintendo Switch emulators. Circumvention takedowns increased slightly, but GitHub notes that these continue to be heavily scrutinized.

also y'all, consider donating to Codeberg if you have an account there, they've been getting hit nonstop the last week or so by chuds.

    I'm curious about codeberg. It looks like they have a CI/CD pipeline. How does it compare to GitHub actions?

    couldn't tell you, never used either.

    well, that's not entirely true. i self host Forgejo and Woodpecker, which i think (might be wrong here, especially because Forgejo does have its own CI/CD now) is what Codeberg offers. anyway, it's been OK for the automatic deployments of my little projects. pipeline configuration was flexible and straightforward enough to surprise me in a good way.
