I disagree with OP calling it fascism to ban it, but people here are forgetting Monero exists and the valid use cases a cryptocurrency like that can have.

Not every cryptocurrency is a scam or a means to manipulate markets. If I'm in a country where I'm doing something objectively good, but still against the law, then cryptocurrency works if it requires finances to operate. See Sci Hub.

Edit: Why was this top of my homepage, I'm just noticing this post is two months old lol.

Is it facism if the community voted for it?

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.

Aw, is someone sad that a nonprofit won't spend their own money to host shitty pump-and-dump tools destroying the environment? Little pissbaby need a minute to compose themself?

Edit: By the way, speaking of fascism, OP...

Edit 2: Just want to say I find it immensely funny that the two people in this thread bitching about this democratic decision and calling it "fascist" and "authoritarian", respectively, have posted an image of Germany captioned "The aggressor nation?" and knowingly, intentionally continue to fund neo-Nazis in Sweden.

It's always projection from the "woke moralists!!" crowd.

"Everything I don't like is fascism"

What a moronic take, and good of Codeberg to kick those assholes out.

git is decentralized for a reason. In the age of robots and cheap VPSs, if you really want a vanity web page / code forge to show your code, it is like an afternoon setting things up and the robot will do most of it for you. Yes, it has always been time to self-host your own code. I don't bother with a code forge, but I do have gitweb/gitolite running for a very light weight setup to push and display code

I dislike Codeberg's decision.
But I would not even think of calling it fascism or censorship.

I just dislike it.
So, I move on.

And due to the fact that I do not like to run into the next dead end, I decided to self host my repositories now. The only way to be assured that tha rules do not ever change in a way that I do not like.
Yes, the overhead is substantial.
It's the trade off I chose and accept.

Poow babby u wnt hug?

Bye Shirley!

I dislike scam money as much as the next person. I do not, however, dislike cryptography. There’s a really good common in the thread about elliptic curve cryptography not having a place on Codeberg anymore and I think that’s valid. I don’t even know if OpenSSL could have a place on Codeberg with this decision. Their nonprofit, their rules. Just not very libre-minded and definitely sets a bad precedent. And before someone tells me Microsoft actively censors GitHub, this isn’t a whataboutism thread. It just reduces my trust in a supposedly open collective.

Think this might be a hot take but crypto is better off hosted on a blockchained git alternative like ngit than codeberg or any other. And while unintentional is ultimately healthier for what crypto is.

"Oh no! They are banning the fascist enabler black market money machine who lobbied billions to place us in the fucked up fascist distopia we are now, how fascist of them!"

crypto? you mean like fake money for laundering?

Its incredibly trivial to just host up your own instance if gogs or gitea on a cheap computer, throw woodpecker on it if you want easy CI/CD

It doesnt take much hardware at all for a git server, a raspberry pi will handle it just fine.

Or just a cheap box liquidated from some office, just go buy some box from a used pc seller in your city, they'll have some.

Toss a 1TB drive in it.

Throw debian on it.

Install Gogs + Woodpecker

And then set em up and connect the two together.

Grats, you have your own self hosted git server whee
