    There’s never a guarantee that they won’t delete your stuff for the wrong reasons. That’s not something you had before this. I’m not trying to be pedantic, I just mean if that’s a legitimate concern you have that you should be backing things up in different ways as well.

      Sure. And of course I’m backing up my code somewhere else.

      But this clause makes it much more likely that my repositories get deleted. And there are other services connected to it, e.g. an app via Fdroid/Obtainium. Losing Codeberg means disconnecting the apps.

          It doesn’t matter. The door is open. I won’t wait for anyone to got through the door, by accident or not.

          All that matters is that the option is there.

            It just feels really baseless to me. Have you read their terms of service? I’m sure there are other similar things in there. Like most terms of service there are parts that say they reserve the right to remove things for reasons not specifically listed. For example, they say if something is harmful to their organization they can remove it even if something isn’t listed explicitly. And that’s something that pretty much all services say. So why is this specifically the thing that makes you worried?

            That door was open the second you uploaded anything to it anyway. Same for any online service.
