#GitHub

On the subject of the ongoing enshittification of GritHub, we've been here before. From a post on my #Disintermedia blog in its early days;

"SF.net has since reimplemented its stack in Python, beginning in 2009 as a new free code project called Allura under the Apache 2.0 license, and in June 2011, a piece was posted on the SourceForge blog which finished off, 'pull up a chair, because we’re here to stay'."

#CodeForges#GitHub#SourceForge#Allura

Starting August 20, 2025, I will not be contributing to projects hosted on #GitHub via GitHub itself, unless I am paid handsomely for my troubles.

If I need to report an issue, or send a patch, I will either keep the report / patch to myself, publish it on my forge, or if I really, really want to contribute, I will send an e-mail. But opening an issue, or sending a PR on GitHub itself? Not going to happen, unless I'm paid for it.

Il CEO di GitHub lancia un messaggio chiaro agli sviluppatori: abbracciate l'intelligenza artificiale o abbandonatela.

• Il CEO di #GitHub esorta gli sviluppatori ad adottare l'intelligenza artificiale o ad abbandonare la professione.
• L' #IntelligenzaArtificiale sta trasformando lo sviluppo del software dalla codifica alla gestione e verifica dei risultati dell'intelligenza artificiale.
• Gli sviluppatori devono adattarsi agli strumenti di intelligenza artificiale per rimanere al passo con i progressi dell'automazione.

Every project that leaves GritHub for good is another measurable dent in the network effects of an enshittified, proprietary platform. Now owned by one of the oldest #DataFarming corporations, who were the earliest enemies of groups working for people's software rights and freedoms.

I’ve finished migrating my active #GitHub repos to #Codeberg. I’ll soon put them in public archive and direct people to the new ones. I’m happy to be able to rely on #EU infrastructure. 👍

Hey #foss advocates and lovers of #opensource #software and projects. What #repos are you using to share your work? It seems #github is getting controversial with #copilot Are people somewhat content with the fact that open source projects are being used for training data and just keep using github because it's useful and that's where people are or are folks looking at self-hosting or other options? @jorge curious about UBlue's position. Thanks!

The #GitHub 500 page looks like it hasn't been redesigned since the early 2010s.

The only way Microsoft should be involved in a European Sovereign Tech Fund is if we fund it by taxing the living shit out of them.

But having them organise and influence it (and who gets funded by it), thereby de facto giving Microsoft EU taxpayer subsidies? Get the fuck out of here.

There are no words to describe how angry this attempt at corporate capture gets me when we’ve been working on sovereign tech in the EU for the past seven years with zero EU funding (not for lack of trying).

Note which people and organisations allow their names to be used to legitimise this effort so you don’t trust a thing they say on this subject in the future.
