guess it's time to switch to gitlab or any others github alternatives
Gitlab.com also follows takedown notices, as do all other hosters based in a jurisdiction with similar rules.
Edit: The devs could send a counter-notice and reinstate their Github page, but that'd open them up to a lawsuit, for which they likely don't have the resources. It's the same situation as tge takedown of Tachiyomi.
But I agree, hopefully switching to another code host will solve the issue for the time being.
is there any decentralized alternatives ?
Codeberg develops and uses forgejo, which is working towards adding federation: https://forgejo.org/compare/#focus-on-forge-federation
Then of course git itself is p2p, you can use ssh (no web UI) and host it in many servers (git remote).
