@ury@fedi.trough.lol, I think what you posted is veeeery very close to whataboutism. Every platform has its ToS. GitHub does, BitBucket does, Codeberg does, Framasoft does. And these rules change every once in a while. While every scenario you're describing could happen in one timeline or another, same could be said about any other forge. I think it would be fair to judge Codeberg not by your worst case scenario, but by the spirit it's being run by. Which is (at least the way I see it): we're running a forge for your FLOSS. But we're a small organization with limited resources – both in terms of server space and lawyer availability – thus we're opting to not accept software we believe is shitty and of questionable legality by definition. As for Nolto, it was a great example of vibecoded software being shitty: while its landing page looked great and its "viber" boasted proudly about no longer needing actual developers to build and run a successful project, as soon as said project got enough traction, he was crushed under the weight of a couple dozen bugs he was unable to fix. Then people laughed at him, and he gave up and deleted the project. Why would Codeberg want to host "projects" like this? When a human writes crappy code, you could hope that they at least learn and improve, and you know that they likely aren't able to produce millions of lines of code in mere hours. With LLMs, the learning aspect is nonexistent, and code can be spewed at incredible amounts. Anyway, to wrap my rant up, I don't think Codeberg will employ any automatic process to delete infringing repos. They even say so in the announcement. I'm pretty sure that cases will be handled manually and carefully. You should be safe.
