lnxw48a1: I'm starting to wonder whether operating a shared #code-hosting platform is only possible with sponsorship. #Gitorious collapsed because their paid hosting couldn't cover their costs (which includes the cost of free hosting). I don't believe #Github ever publicly released figures, but I do remember hearing a rumor that they were not profitable before #Microsoft purchased them. #Bitbucket still persists, but #Atlassian has made so many changes to their offerings that IMO, using their platform is putting everything that touches it at risk. #SourceForge went to all sorts of dangerous extremes to try to monetize the huge number of repositories they host (most of which appear to be residue of projects that have either died or moved their active repos elsewhere). #Darcs_Hub ( #Darcs ), #The_Nest ( #Pijul ), and #ChiselApp ( #Fossil ) are all too small to experience the tremendous cost factors.

lnxw48a1: > Deleted all the forks I had on GitHub, moved the very few repos I care about over to Codeberg I believe moving over to #Codeberg is a big improvement over relying on #GitHub (which, as #SourceForge once was, is the center of gravity for FOSS projects' development). I closed all my repos on GH some years back. I kept one or two repos on #BitBucket for years, but they were basically dead. When BB rid itself of #Mercurial ( #hg ) and switched solely to #git, I took advantage of the opportunity to close my account there. That said, large numbers of people moving en mass from GitHub to Codeberg would just move the problem to a different platform. The problem being people rely heavily on a centralized service. As for GitHub, I still have my account, and with job-hunting, I really need to put something there. Seriously, I have had some places send rejection notices because they couldn't see any evidence (on GitHub) that I knew anything about the job. But I really only want GH to be a secondary mirror of a main repo hosted elsewhere.

hypolite: I believe we’re at the Extinguish step of the Embrace-Extend-Extinguish plan of #Microsoft acquiring #GitHub . ♲ @me@social.catgirl.is: An open source developer pushed an update removing all functionality and deleted their project from GitHub (going so far as to use git push --force to purge the Git commit tree). GitHub and Microsoft used this library internally so they reversed the changes and banned them from GitHub for deleting their project. The issue here is GitHub said you are not allowed to delete your project. twitter.com/marak/status/14792…

lnxw48a1: Logged into #GitHub for the first time in years. It immediately asked me to verify my e-mail address (the same one I've had and verified with them years ago). I'm going to have to create another address (a public one) to use, so I can generate new #GPG keys. Going to have to put something up there for job-hunting purposes. I'll use it as a backup or something, so I've got content there, but whatever I do is not entirely dependent on their goodwill. We all know that we shouldn't willingly give corporations the ability to control us, but I'm hoping to be one of the few that acts on this knowledge.
