I had my GitHub account suspended for “violating terms of service”. This happened while I was getting things setup on a new machine, so maybe some suspicious login behavior, but not like anything that has been told to me is concrete on what policy (if any) was violated.

I also recently released a plugin that got some good traction (), the page for that is down :( Unsure how this impacts users, maybe only when they try to update?

I saw a recent post of another user experiencing the same problem, it’s really sad to see but not unexpected given Microsoft.

I have always only used GitHub and while I knew that wasn’t the best idea, it was never a problem, I guess as these things go it’s not a problem until it is.

Does anyone have any setup they use to not be so tied to GitHub? I guess ideally there would be some way for me to maintain all of my repos across multiple Git hosts (GitLab, etc.). Maybe something like multiple mirrors, but then I would need to choose some main one as the root which doesn’t sound ideal. I really don’t know what the possibilities are here and would love any input.

Thanks!

Edit: My public GitHub is back now, they did resolve the problem quickly, but still looking for ways to avoid this in the future
