Frankly, I don't see where the whole big deal of this story is.
People who don't like codeberg can just go somewhere else (even back to github) and/or found/support an alternative that better suits their needs.
It's not like the world needs to have one git hosting service to rule them all, it's not like there must be free ones (entitled much?), and it's not like whatever service happens to be the new "cool" one must be neutral as to what they host.
BTW, although to my knowledge their policy is not enforced super-strictly, codeberg has never been neutral in this regard — see 1 and 2
And Codeberg literally makes it easier for them, as you can just download or git clone Forgejo directly from them! When have we ever seen a breakup so amicable.

https://gitgud.io/ provides free GitLab hosting for open source projects.
https://gitlab.com/ has a free tier for personal/open source stuff, though looks like it has a 5 user limit on said free tier.
Gitea can be self-hosted. It doesn't look like they provide free hosting themselves, though, just paid. Apparently it's considerably less resource-intensive to host than GitLab.
GNU Savannah is available if one is writing projects under a specific set of licenses (the GPL family).
I use Forgejo which is either forked from or built on Gitea
Super easy to set up it was a docker container and a cloudflared tunnel.
How do you back up your git repos? Do you do that automatically through Forgejo or do you count on other members having the git repo updated?
Sorry for the off tangent question!
I didn't, I hadn't written code before that.
Didn't down vote ya but.....This. This is what I've been saying for forever.
I agree, but I believe that there must be free git hosting and archiving for code projects.
What's stopping you from doing it yourself? Be the change you want to see.
Sure, but that does not make it mandatorily Codeberg's mission.
Sure, but I didn't say that.
