That won't be easy because Codeberg follows German law.

Germany and the EU will probably kowtow to the US if the DMCA requests or lawsuits are brought by big enough players.

Big money interests rub shoulders with US politicians, US politicians deal with their overseas counterparts. Therefore, big enough DMCA requests will be mentioned behind closed doors in the same breath as international trade and other geopolitical concerns. Money protects money in deals between close enough friends and allies.

If Codeberg were based in Russia or a US geopolitical adversary, on the other hand, such requests would likely be ignored.
