Open Source Github Repositories in Danger of being Deleted (lemmy.zip)

submitted 1 month ago by Akito@lemmy.zip to c/opensource

Looking for your personal lists of Github repositories, which might be deleted from Github at some point, for whatever reason. For example, the maintainer might delete his account from Github or archive all his repositories.

A famous example of an open source project, which had trouble to continue thriving, is youtube-dl.

Which projects' repositories do you think are worth backing up?

There's also https://radicle.xyz/ which seems interesting.

And https://forgejo.org/ for self hosting (codeberg uses it) it's also getting federation so forges will be able to interact with eachother too.

Worth mentioning for those who care- radicle is funded by radworks, basically a crypto organization. (Source: their faq)
