SourceHut is more reliable than GitHub. I mean this in the truest sense of the word, I can rely on SourceHut not to act against my interests, both ideologically and just basic usefulness.

I thought so too at first, until the owner changed their TOS to forbid all crypto and blockchain related projects, essentially kicking me off their platform.

So no, it's not reliable. The platform is at the behest of a small group of ideologists, who might change their stance on any topic on a whim.

GitHub on the contrary continues to host code that has been OFAC sanctioned. I'd rather stay with them.

Moment, what?

SourceHut bans customers purely on ideological grounds?

If true, this would change my opinion about this service diametrically. That would result in: Never ever make business with them.

SourceHut offers CI. People end up just using the CI for litecoin/bitcoin/eth/etc mining or the storage for chia mining.

Agreed. Moved all my stuff from GitHub to Sourcehut. Haven't looked back. Well, okay, I look at the trending repos and star some that are interesting, but I don't host my personal projects on there.
