no they didn't. it's right there in the thread; they reserve the right to remove any project that "damages the reputation of codeberg", with crypto scams listed as an example.

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.
