# Codeberg members vote to ban AI-generated code

**[omg\! ubuntu\!](https://daily.dev/sources/omgub)** · 3 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Codeberg, the nonprofit FLOSS code hosting platform, has voted to ban projects that are "mostly" AI-generated code, with the motion passing 358 to 144. The ban is driven by the economic strain of hosting vibe-coded projects — storage costs have ballooned from ~€700 to €3,700 per SSD — which is unsustainable for a donation-funded service. A second motion also commits Codeberg to never training AI models on hosted code or user data. The ban is not absolute: human-driven projects with occasional LLM contributions are safe, and existing active communities won't face immediate deletion. Fully autonomous agent-built repos and projects with no human contributors are the primary targets. The move mirrors Flathub's recent policy against AI-assisted app submissions, reflecting a broader FOSS community pushback against the externalized costs of AI-generated content.
