Microsoft suspended this GitHub user's account for making this PR request. The user lost access to private repos and source code. It's a good reminder that you must keep backups locally. A simple joke could turned into a disaster and you could lose access to all source code including private repos. Better, don't use their services.
@nixCraftnixCraft ๐ง You just reminded me of the time I got banned from GitHub. It was about a year ago - for no reason at all ๐คทโโ๏ธ Back then, I barely committed anything, and I used the social features even less. One day, I logged in to activate the Student Pack and saw that my account was banned 
Luckily, I contacted support ๐ ๏ธ, and if I remember correctly, everything was back to normal the next day. They told me their moderation algorithms (yes, they use AI ๐ค) had made a mistake, and my account was reactivated.
Still,
GitHub has been drifting away from my values for some time now, and that trend hasn't stopped. At the same time, my standards have been gradually getting stricter. So now I'm seriously considering switching to ๐๏ธ
@CodebergCodeberg.org. I just need to sort out a few things with my current projects on GitHub, especially the ones I'm not working on alone.
