It took a bit but legitimate repo owners are starting to come over to codeberg and other alternative git sites. If we can get federation working it will be even better.
My GitHub account is getting swamped with AI created accounts following my account because it makes them look legit. It's getting pretty bad...
Does codeberg have anything that will prevent an influx of bots or AI accounts that have plagued GitHub?
I ask because as the user base for codeberg grows the bots, AI and nefarious actors will follow.
I like the idea of a federated source code hosting platform especially since it removes lock-in to a single corporation and a defacto monopoly.
That in itself is a good enough reason to migrate, but regarding this particular issue, bots/AI and artificial project promotion for malicious intent, feels like re-arranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
No idea. I would assume it's the same as all other activityhub providers.
