    I mean, if you try to “scam” the gov, you can clone some codeberg repo to github, rename it, rewrite history to make the commits look like you did everything and then tell the gov “look at how much work I volunteered”. At least in germany, there are currently not enough public workers so many little things go unchecked.

      Ah I see, yeah I guess something like that would be possible. On the other hand it would be trivial to prove this happened even in the future as long as the government keeps a unedited copy of this repo.
