It does sound like "vibe code bad".

Because if they were actually concerned about copyright, they would ban all LLM code, not just some LLM code.

There is no need for a repository hosting software to decide what people are allowed to upload unless it is literal Nazi or kiddy diddle content or something else illegal.

Did you not read the actual change?

  1. You must not share projects that mostly consist of code written by "generative AI"-tools (including services such as Claude, OpenAI Codex). Such projects having an unclear copyright status (see requirements § 2 (1) 1 and § 2 (1) 3) and furthermore have little safeguards to ensure that they do not include harmful code (c.f. § 2 (1) 5).

So you can do a little copyright violation but not too much?

If you have more specific questions about Codeberg's decision, you should ask them, not me.

I am only calling out the inconsistency of their statement.

Tell them then, not me. I'm not affiliated with Codeberg. I only read the change set.
