Looking for your personal lists of Github repositories, which might be deleted from Github at some point, for whatever reason. For example, the maintainer might delete his account from Github or archive all his repositories.

A famous example of an open source project, which had trouble to continue thriving, is youtube-dl.

Which projects’ repositories do you think are worth backing up?

    I think the biggest ones that would suck if lost would be Qbit, Jellyfin, and Trilium. Qbit because it download and share a lot with it. Jellyfin because of most of my family’s media consumption is via it. And trilium because most of my notes from the past year plus are there plus imported others. It’s essential.

      Okay, but are they in danger of being removed? I think, they should be very well preserved…

        I mean I’m not sure! The way you worded accounts being deleted or repos made me think you meant in general

        Edit Yeah you say worth preserving. So for me I will go back those up!
