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 ❤️

I forked [Bypass Paywalls](https://x.com/Magnolia1234B) 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](https://github.com/github/dmca/blob/master/2024/08/2024-08-09-news-media-alliance.md) from "News Media ~~Cartel~~ Alliance":
![](https://m.stacker.news/46985).

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 😘
