Just had this happen to me with my Microsoft/Minecraft account. I had migrated my mojang account 2 days ago and today I was told that apparently they "detected some activity that violates our Microsoft Services Agreement" and locked my account. They did not explain what the violation was and apparently it would magically go away if I verified my phone number (which they did not have before).

Never doing any buissness with ms again.

No github for you then ;)

    Well, gitlab is way better. Github is the Facebook of developers.

      Gitlab docs say the absolutely bare minimum of RAM to run it is 4GB. And that's just for gitlab, never mind Postgres. That's something like $70/mo just to host some git repos on a major cloud provider.

      And if you're talking about the hosted solution... we use that at work. We have what are effectively outages once a week on average.

      I like the way Gitlab as a company is run and I really want to like it but... I use gitea at home and we're actively migrating away from it at work.

      I self host my repositories. In this way I do not care about either. But when I am searching for code Github proves to be very good source. I would not say that projects hosted on Gitlab are any better

    I was not planning to get a paid account there anyway. And regardless I prefer gitlab (due to the ICE stuff).
