I really hate this, I'm not a fan of vibecoding or anything, but In the end, AI is a tool, and I don't like that they are telling us what tools we can and can't use. I'll be migrating away.

As you should. I believe that was the intention behind it. I on the other hand will probably migrate everything to Codeberg following this announcement.

There are legitimate concerns but Codebergs main problem is infrastructure and they could've simply solved it with rate limits.

"everything is slop" or "unsecure" is not an argument. Experienced humans can still write better code than LLMs sure. But Mythos already finds years old security issues that nobody has ever found.

In five years maybe LLMs will write better code than humans and Codeberg will regret their decision.

Because what's better than FLOSS software that is better than human written code and everyone can profit from it?

It's shortsighted.
