You can have an offline gitlab/forgejo and a public github. I do most of my work against a local gitlab, and mirror up to github for anything that needs to be shared.

I have a couple of projects mirrored down to my gitlab as a backup, and they are not online, so can't realistically be DCMAd.

I mean, you can just as easily just keep a project cloned if the purpose is an offline copy.

That doesn't change all the liability problems with running a public repo as well as why most coders aren't interested in a fly by night one that is designed to escape legal consequences.
