Im probably not going to switch anytime soon (ive been on GH for over 10 years now), but I wonder if there is something like a Github Alternative?

With all the takedowns (open source or otherwise) occurring lately, I would rather like my code to be somewhere safe-ish.

    My experience is not much flies under the radar anymore - this stuff is heavily automated and even legitimate content is often accused of infringing (I’ve stopped buying stock photos for example… because using them is likely to result in being accused of copyright infringement and proving you purchased a license is far more effort than they are worth).

    I would expect GitHub to at least have staff who understand IP law and will stand their ground as much as (reasonably) possible. It would be interesting to know how many take downs they have received without actually taking the content down… I bet it’s a high number.
