I forked Bypass Paywalls repo that I used to read the legacy media. The repo contained only code. Then suddenly it was taken down by GitHub with this notice from "News Media Cartel Alliance":

This is a reminder that if you keep your code only on GitHub, Microsoft can take it away from you.

And fuck the legacy media 😘

OP Probably already knows but this comment is a reminder that you can self-host:
• Gitea: https://docs.gitea.com/category/installation
• GitLab: https://about.gitlab.com/install/
• Other options akin to GitHub

Forking on GitHub is for convenience. Hosting on GitHub is for exposure and redundancy. Always have local and alternate cloud backups ❤️
