    Codeberg is great, but it is hosted in Germany, and subject to their laws. AFAIK, Germany has laws against tools for “circumventing copy protection”, or “hacking”.

    So I am not sure that they can provide a save haven for tools, where some lawyer could argue these points successfully in front of a court.

      Also has the highest rate of website take-downs/bans. To be fair: mostly revenge “naked pictures of my ex” websites. But yeah. Piracy + Germany = not good. You’d rather turn to the Netherlands for that.

      ActivityPub is amazing for censorship because anything that gets posted to one instance gets immediately archived thousands of times over.
