        Edit:

        and just for good measure, the actual text of the ToS, with the change highlighted:

        You must not share any content that’s expressing hate or encouraging violence towards a person or group for any reason. We also explicitly do not tolerate:

        • Discriminatory behaviour towards and promoting oppression, especially of marginalized groups on grounds of ethnicity, gender, disability, nationality, education, age, and religion.
        • Violent nationalist propaganda, Nazi symbolism or promoting the ideology of National Socialism.
        • Mobbing, stalking, doxxing (exposing someone’s personal information), brigading (inciting a group to spam a specific place for any reason), threatening and harassment, as well as encouraging others to do those things.
        • Insults, discriminatory jokes, sexualized comments and other unwanted sexual attention.
        • Sexually obscene content, including content involving the exploitation or sexualization of minors.
        • Content that’s glorifying violence; that includes any violent material without a proper content warning.
        • Content that harms the reputation of Codeberg, such as cryptocurrency related projects.
