Are you guys fine with these new shenanigans from Github. I found a bug and wanted to check what has been the development on that, only to find out most of the discussion was hidden by github and requesting me to sign-in to view it. It threw me straight back to when Microsoft acquired Github and the discussions around the future of opensource on a microsoft owned infrastructure, now microsoft is exploiting free work from the community to train its AI, and building walls around its product, are open source contributors fine with that ?

Federated forges can’t come soon enough. Git is already federated. There is absolutely not fucking reason for this.

Git is already federated & decentralized

While admirable, I really don’t think email is the path forward if you want to replace GitHub. There’s a reason people use things like GitHub, it’s user friendly and you don’t need to use email or look at long mailing lists.
