[Nintendo DMCA] My Gitlab account is banned

GermanAizek

Hi everyone,
my account was blocked for contributing to Suyu emulator Nintendo Switch console, but now we have switched to suyu.dev git hosting. Attempts to negotiate with gitlab technical support are in vain, but github was unblocked to me because it is too large with many repos.
I active user UT.
I have my own PRs for my device, but maintainer Xioami Redmi Note 7 not active.
How do I continue to do PR or fixes in future, as in case oFono: https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/ofono-ubports/-/merge_requests/9
I can create new gitlab account without violating UBTouch contribution rules?

Sorry for the late reply, people rarely check the off-topic section.
You have not broken any ubports rules, and are welcome to use another account. You have made valuable contributions in the past, and we'd love to have you back. The community is very active on telegram and you can get help with porting related questions here: https://t.me/ubports_porting

The stuff between you and gitlab, is not something I am knowledgeable about, but i recommend you follow their TOS.

@Equareo, I can't contribute to UT gitlab repositories, I can't create a new account. My forks UT device I continue make in Bitbucket. Why UBPorts don't have self-hosted git like all open source projects? For example: winehq.org

Maybe because it requires money and people to maintain such a tool ?
And not all open source project have their own git, that's why tools like sourceforge or gitlab have so much open source project hosted on them.
