    Codeberg is good for open-source projects.

    I don’t think they allow non-open-source except by special permission.

        The point is that people who privately host projects on GitHub might expect to be able to do the same on a GitHub alternative.

        Also, some people use GitHub for non-open-source projects with public code. (Remember, open-source has a specific meaning; merely publishing your code in public view does not make it open-source.)

          This strengthens my point even more.

            I don’t see any point that could be strengthened. All I see from you above is a question.

                So mind telling us mere mortals what your point is, then?

                Just asking why anyone would want to publicly host the repo for a closed source project isn’t a point – it’s just you not understanding the reasons for doing that, and just because you personally don’t understand something doesn’t mean there’s no valid reason to do it.
