If any repository that you use, or are interested in, is hosted on a commercial, for-profit service (even if it has a free tier), back it up. It will, eventually, disappear.

All repositories related to emulation and Nintendo, some of which I backed up on a self-hosted Forgejo instance.
Also, everything that you use and doesn't have more than 2 or 3 maintainers.
Ah, great minds think alike 😄. I also began to mirror several emulation-related projects ever since Nintendo started its takedowns.
One under-the-radar project that I believe is worth preserving is the collection of Pokemon game decompilations by Pret. Just to list a few:
Nice, noted. Do you have any other projects on your mind?
Thanks for your suggestion. Do you have a list of Github URLs of the ones most important to you?
