    Let’s be honest here, at least like 98% of the popular OSS is on GitHub at this point. You don’t have to like it, but it’s how things are

      Doesn’t mean that they have to continue putting stuff there. But oh well, maybe once ForgeFed becomes a real thing, things might change a little.

        People use the most convenient way to collaborate, and that’s for me currently Github. Really hope, some day a better alternative with ForgeFed becomes reality.

        It does. OSS needs visibility, it needs contributions

        GitHub’s community and discoverability features really help with that, as much as it sucks that they got acquired by Microsoft

      Open source was M$’ archenemy that they knew they couldn’t compete against. So they slithered in and co-opted it and everyone just ignores the perils and carries on.

        Not to mention the fact that they trained copilot using code on it, without informing or taking permission from the authors and they justify it citing fair use policy.
