  1. Why I'm leaving #GitHub

    source: jorijn.com/en/blog/leaving-git…

    TL;DR

    • GitHub logged 257 incidents in May 2025 to April 2026, 48 of them major. The CTO publicly apologised and said capacity needs to scale 30x to keep up with AI-driven load.
    • In August 2025 GitHub stopped having its own CEO. It is now a unit of Microsoft's #CoreAI division, the same group building Copilot and the broader AI stack.
    • On April 24, 2026 GitHub flipped #Copilot Free, Pro, and Pro+ user-interaction data to opt-in for AI training by default. There is no repository-level opt-out.
    • US-jurisdictional risk under #FISA Section 702 and the CLOUD Act is unresolved. Microsoft's own attorney told the French Senate under oath he could not #guarantee #EU data was safe from silent US #government access.

    So tell me why do they still use GitHub?

    Security guarantees can be provided only after the end of the war. Otherwise, we will become its (war) participants. And if we become its (war) participants, then we'll definitely not be on the side of Ukraine. Because it so happened that our friends and allies are on the other side mastodon.social/@zoogger/11630
