#DeleteGitHub

@lmemsm Thanks but I don’t do MS #GitHub

#deleteGithub

What’s most surprising about #Github being so seriously compromized is not the attack itself, but the lack of #fediverse attention. So many #FOSS developers have become comfortable enough with #Microsoft that there’s no real concern or #fedi chatter. The #deleteGithub movement remains dead.

@conservancy
Thanks for doing this, Software Conservancy. 💖 Its indeed time to #GiveUpGIthub.

Thanks also for pointing out that #gitlab.com is problematic, its also CloudFlare. Likewise Sourceforge is CloudFlare and #Atlassian and #Gitter are Amazon.

DotCons abound.

Gitea seems to work well. Some Gitea instances include:
- Disroot
- unite.openworlds.info
- phreedom.club
- mirkodi.tech

We will be boosting, for different timezones.

#griftHub #deletegIthUB #deCloudFlare

(3/3)

- blocking #democracy (#Catalonia, anti-#censorship devs),
- quietly sabotaging #deCloudflare, a charitable, #humanitarian project giving the public tools to avoid #Cloudflare, with a dev also suspended.

FOSS projects that *rely* on hostile services put everyone at the whim of the entity and puts those #freeSoftware devs in a position of #hypocrisy.

@deejoe @celia @klaatu @dsfgs I've been part of the #deleteGithub movement, so I've seen a lot of people's reasons behind staying on #Github. The top two reasons people give for opposing migration off Github: 1) unwillingness to create yet another account 2) being where everyone else is for project visibility. I wish I had kept stats, but that's burned in my memory. Point 1 is wholly a matter of effort.
