It'll also be a great way to take down projects you don't like. Just accuse them of witchcraft.

Good thing we have pro-AI platforms like GitHub that would never arbitrarily remove projects... Right?? Right???

That's just Facedeer, an infamous AI booster and concern troll.

A bad faith troll could claim any genuine rule against platform abuse could be turned into a witch hunt. Rules like "don't upload giant files to overwhelm our servers" or, since I'm reminded of someone else who claims they're labeled a witch, "don't harass transgender people"...

Because GitHub arbitrarily removes projects it's okay if Codeberg does too? "They're the same as GitHub" is not actually a great point in their favor.

they could already take down any projects they didn't like. it's their service after all
