No it can't. You're still thinking about github and its built in "forking" mechanism.

Well yeah, you can copy the code and put it on an entirely different platform.

But that's like saying Prime video is federated because you can rip it and keep a copy elsewhere.

GitHub is the platform, and it's not Federated.
