Is there no git hosting service left that isn't pushing censorship and fascism? I think I should just start self-hosting at this point.

Point 6

The license must not restrict anyone from making use of the program in a specific field of endeavor. For example, it may not restrict the program from being used in a business, or from being used for genetic research.

Whats stopping you from taking the software to host codrberg, and host your own?

Because its not the license. That's software, not a service provider.

The OSI applies to software like forgejo, not services like codeberg. The term 'open source' does not imply a software uses an open license or follows any particular philosophy, it can be used by any project, with any license.

You are not restricted in your use of their software. Don't make shit up. Go try and ask Debian to include a proprietary program in their main repo and see how far you get.

Mind highlighting the part that you think proves your point? You used some of those words, sure, but this is a completely different meaning from your original comment.
