NOTES: No, as they use the neutral term "Free and Open Source Software" and "Open Source", like in their Mission Statement: https://blog.codeberg.org/codebergorg-launched.html
A7 - Clearly endorses software freedom
NOTES: No, as it's a mix. In their mission statement they say "Open Source" and "Free and Open Source Software": https://blog.codeberg.org/codebergorg-launched.html. On the other hand, their "What is Codeberg?" page unilaterally says "Free Software": https://docs.codeberg.page/getting-started/what-is-codeberg/
A8 - Refers to GNU/Linux, wherever applicable
A9 - Requires thorough and clear licensing
NOTES: No.

A-plus 2 - Follows EFF guidelines
A-plus 3 - Conforms to WCAG standard

A-plus 5 - Complete data exportability
NOTES: No. It might be possible one day though.(Does git count?)
