movie-web was just taken down with all its repos, Yuzu was taken down, then suyu forked it on gitlab and was taken down, countless clones of nintendo games, platform emulators, and a bunch of other things are taken down because they are hosted on the clear web.

If you're a dev and planning to write software for piracy, host it on I2P!

Also check out Radicle, it's basically decentralized Git. @forgejo@floss.social is also working on a federation solution: @ForgeFed@floss.social (https://forgefed.org/)

Radicle can still suffer under a DMCA if it's on the clear web. They just have to take down the node(s) hosting the repos, same as github, gitlab, et al. However if radicle works on I2P, that would be... rad 🤑

Wow, that's great! once they have stable support for TOR and I2P, it could become amazing for hosting such projects.
