Following up on the #github fiasco, maybe on top of only using #FOSS software, and federating as much as possible along #selfhosting, what we really need is agent-centric naming and #identity system (also to allow for nomadic identity for #Mastodon and the fediverse).
I wonder if we could use something similar to IPNS (in the #IPFS project)? https://github.com/ipfs/specs/tree/master/architecture
Or maybe simply https://www.opennic.org

What we really need would be a federated code hosting platform. Everybody could run a own instance or join one he/she can trust in but interact with projects that are hosted on other instances without need for an extra account there. All tools we would need to build something like this are already there. Git is made for distributed code management and the rest could be done with ActivityPub.

The flip side of the #GitHub exodus is that it will become harder to find out about new software projects since it won't be mostly centralized in a single place. Time to revive a Freshmeat of sorts?

#Nostalgia of the week: "Developers! Developers! Developers!" #Microsoft to embrace and extend a web front-end to #git. Just as #HotMail was rebranded Outlook.com, I dearly hope #GitHub becomes VisualStudio.com. http://microblog.mjd.id.au/url/12503 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-FkalybggA -

Single Sign On "Login with Github" which is everywhere is probably the main problem when Microsoft acquires github...

The rumours are true, the #Borg have arrived on planet #GitHub to assimilate all the stock it has penned up in its #datafarm

YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE. SDF has just acquired Microsoft. Our first act as the new owner of Microsoft is to release GITHUB under the NetBSD license and revert our company logo back to HEAVY METAL...... #GitHub

Well that's awesome: #ScummVM has announced support for #Might-and-Magic ready for testing. And I hope in regard of #Microsoft taking over #Github the project itself is migrating to another repository. #Free-and-Libre #GNU-Linux #GamingOnLinux

@delores My comment is mostly about the projects that migrate away from #GitHub. Even though I emptied out my GH account years ago, I still have it, so reporting issues on random software projects there remains easy. In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -

Already 2,5 years ago I argued why big central code hosting platforms are a problem and what should change from my perspective. I have the feeling that it fits perfectly these days. https://www.schiessle.org/articles/2016/02/12/the-next-generation-of-code-hosting-platforms/ #Github #Microsoft

If you're concerned about #Microsoft buying #GitHub (and you should be) please do not simply move to GitLab.com (the hosted #GitLab instance), it also runs on MS servers, (Azure) - always self-host GitLab, or if it's too heavy, go with Gitea.
Whatever you do, do not simply move from one silo to another.

As others have pointed out one possible option is git-ssb:

What's the move on #GitHub and #Microsoft?
I'd really rather not use any Microsoft tools unless I really have to, but I know there are a ton of folks using GitHub and it's a nice way of connecting with people.
This is #Facebook all over again.

So, who has started working on an #ActivityPub #ActivityStreams federation protocol for #git pull requests, forking, issue tracking, identity/membership/permissions, following, etc?
