Private repos are allowed, although with some restrictions:
Private repositories are only allowed for things required for FLOSS projects, like storing secrets, team-internal discussions or hiding projects from the public until they're ready for usage and/or contribution. They are also allowed for really small & personal stuff like your journal, config files, ideas or notes, but explicitly not as a personal cloud or media storage.
This is reasonable: Codeberg is specifically set up to be a code host for open-source projects, not for closed-source commercial code.
Who determines what a really small project is? All my projects are for personal use, but how do I proof that?
Using codeberg over github makes no sense. Either you use github and github uses your data to train. Or you use codeberg and github just crawl all their content because codeberg doesn't allow non FOSS repos.
It's insane to love Codeberg. Codeberg serves no purpose at all. Besides the free stuff ofc.
