If the far-right hates Codeberg, that only tells me Codeberg is doing something right.

Well left but yes
Got one of those and not even sure I have a codeberg account.
How can we help?
I woke up to an email saying ni***r balls lol
Same! Very confusing thing first thing in the morning
Issue #1113 by any chance? :D
what's the point in attacking a source control website anyways?
Well the open source crowd is probably one of the most diverse communities in so many ways.
Everything from wife-killers, toenail-eaters, to geniuses that rolled a one in social skills. From Mexico, to Israel, to Indonesia. From a kid in the library who can't afford a computer, to millionaires running a data centre in their basement.
Diversity is one-third of DEI, which currently is public enemy number one. So here we are..
Such actions are typically indicative of having a micropenis.
It's probably to make minorities feel unsafe, even in their own spaces.
Can confirm, just got phishing mail "from Codeberg" containing the n word in its subject (?)
Same. Was very confusing.
Not necessarily a phishing mail. I got tagged in an issue that some idiot created and codeberg dutifully sent me a mail notification.
me too, but hopefully the issue is now fixed and those assholes kept banned
Same here. Such a jarring and upsetting way to start a morning
Did Codeberg do something/take some stance to attract the attention of the far right? It feels like such an arbitrary target?
From what I gather, I don't think it's about any stance from Codeberg in general, it seems they are attacking "several projects advocating tolerance and equal rights" in particular. They just happen to be hosted in Codeberg.
Either that, or it's not selling out to corporate exploitation/AI like Github is and the ancaps hate that.
