Not even public domain or CC0 is allowed. Your license absolutely must restrict the rights of others to be permissible.

  That's not true. Codeberg hosts public domain and CC0 projects. According to the Codeberg docs:[1] > For documentation, writing, and other non-code assets, a Creative Commons (CC) licence can be used, but note that only the following CC licences are considered free (sorted from protective to unconditional): > - CC-BY-SA > - CC-BY > - CC0 > Like CC themselves, Codeberg recommends against using a CC licence on code.[2] CC0 is classified by the FSF under "Free licenses, compatible with the GNU GPL", so Codeberg definitely accepts CC0 projects.[3] Also, licenses such as the Unlicense (which is approved by both the FSF and the OSI) make it easy to dedicate code to the public domain with a legal fallback for jurisdictions that do not recognize the public domain.[4] Public domain repos exist on Codeberg, for example: - https://codeberg.org/streams/streams https://codeberg.org/streams/streams (public domain declaration) - https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep (CC0) - https://codeberg.org/youngchief/feddy https://codeberg.org/youngchief/feddy (Unlicense) --- [1] https://docs.codeberg.org/getting-started/licensing/ https://docs.codeberg.org/getting-started/licensing/ [2] https://creativecommons.org/faq/#can-i-apply-a-creative-commons-license-to-software https://creativecommons.org/faq/#can-i-apply-a-creative-comm...
