I don't think this is a freedom of speech issue.
Instead, it's an issue that the private operators (codeberg & sourcehut) are looking to apply their own freedom of speech to take a stance against projects that have a high case of fraud.
You see the same thing from Stripe[1]: they ban similarity predatory systems from using their services & tarnishing their brand.
it is, when the platform is so huge and are controlled by the government behind the curtains... Doesn't surprise me that people on HN are pro-Biden when I hear stuff like this....
They had since locked the thread before I could comment, to try to avoid the media frenzy. They re-opened it a few days ago. I will post my comment in full below, because I believe inclusiveness is a human right for all. (Wall of text warning)
If you think this is not so important because Codeberg is not a big source control site, then just imagine if this was Github or Gitlab doing this. Try to imagine all the backlash they would get from the wider world. This recent trend of Git sites harassing crypto developers and their projects must be stopped.
