GitHub’s latest transparency report reveals that the company received 2,000 valid DMCA takedown notices last year, resulting in the removal of over 31,151 projects. Targeted repositories included copied code, but also pirate apps, IPTV playlists, and many Nintendo Switch emulators. Circumvention takedowns increased slightly, but GitHub notes that these continue to be heavily scrutinized.

        couldn’t tell you, never used either.

        well, that’s not entirely true. i self host Forgejo and Woodpecker, which i think (might be wrong here, especially because Forgejo does have its own CI/CD now) is what Codeberg offers. anyway, it’s been OK for the automatic deployments of my little projects. pipeline configuration was flexible and straightforward enough to surprise me in a good way.

        Forgejo Documentation says they should be familiar to people who use github actions, they’re not the same but I found that when debugging some a few months back that github information was applicable, if that helps.
