I highly suggest starting to familiarize ourselves with federated git repos. I‘m testing forgejo atm hoping to be able to host it publicly at some point. That way, once something is out there, its pretty much everywhere.
Federated git repos doesn’t mean that the source code will be replicated across instances. It just means you can do things like create tickets and pull requests across instances.
hmmmm… I see your point. Maybe I wasnt explaining my point clear enough. Right now, I cant see someones fork of some software if I’m on some gitlab which is not federated afaik. I should have said discoverability I guess. Does that make more sense?
I mean, not saying anyone should, because evading copyright is bad. But technically, you could run say forgejo as an onion service. Connecting git to clone from it would take some extra steps but, if hidden well it’d make it somewhat harder to take down.
Evading oppressive mechanics is always a great idea imho but I digress.
I’m not really talking about making it unable to be taken down, which is already what happens when you put it in a non public repo. I’m talking about exhausting the corpo and damaging their image for going after people using software to play their bought games on their pc. It could kick off a trend of peeps shaming corpos (especially nintendo) for going after legit players who want control of their devices and property. (whoever feels like pointing out that “technically you just own a license”, just dont).
this repo still lives and we still have Suyu that looks promising, So, no worries atm https://github.com/pineappleEA/pineapple-src/releases/tag/EA-4176
Github probably didn’t receive a cease and desist yet, but I doubt they’ll put up a fight against Nintendo.

Not sure I understand. I should be able to fork a public repo across instances, no? Why bother otherwise?
Federation has nothing to do with that capability.
