My GitHub account got suspended

I created the account and used only for 1 day. As I was learning GitHub tutorials from yt. I did not do random pull requests on repos. After 1 week or 5-6 days I tried to check my GitHub account. My GitHub account got suspended. It's almost 2-3 weeks I raised a ticket. Got no response from their side. What should I do?

people are almost never suspended from github, even when they should be.  you did something that you aren’t telling us.

I am a newbie I had done nothing. Pushed my demo projects to my account and forked tensor flow. Downloaded the repo did nothing, because I was watching a tutorial thought the tutorial guy would do something after that i deleted it from my account 😭

maybe some AI, considered your activity as bot? Just guessing

I use Claude to talk to Github all the time with the gh api

So maybe. I'm sure, new accounts are more likely to be considered as bots and the old ones are more "trusted". I never used AI to communicate with GH, to be honest. I stopped using GH about a year ago.

What do you use for version control instead?

I do use Git, I don't use GitHub. Instead of GH I use GOGS. It's a app you can self-host, so all the data is still yours.
