    @[email protected] if Microsoft says “oops, my bad” and unblocks your account, will you continue accepting contributions on github or will you delete the account for good?

      I’m not sure if deleting the account on github would be the best option. They could use it as mirror and link to the forgejo instance where active development takes place.

        Why wouldn’t it be the best option? 🤔 What arguments are there against moving completely?

            Hmm, that still gives traffic to Github. IMO it would be better if searching for “organicmaps” sent them to the opensource alternative and never to github. Most people will most likely click on the github link and not on the forgejo one, which will keep the github link always on top of the forgejo on. But that’s for @[email protected] to decide.

                You do realise that they are hosting their own forgejo and not every country is sanctioning the same countries?

                  “Hosting their own” doesn’t exist in this context. There is either an ISP, a data center (for colocation) or (more likely) a root server or VPS provider involved which is bound by sanctions just as much as a Git repo hoster in the same jurisdiction would be.
