Tutti i motivi per abbandonare #GitHub e quali sono le possibili alternative. Il post di @conservancy@social.sfconservancy.org Sappiamo che non è un compito facile; GitHub è onnipresente. Grazie al suo marketing efficace, GitHub ha convinto gli sviluppatori di software libero e open source ( FOSS ) che GitHub è il posto migliore (e persino l'unico) per lo sviluppo FOSS. Tuttavia, essendo uno strumento proprietario e protetto da segreto commerciale, GitHub è l'esatto opposto del FOSS. https://sfconservancy.org/GiveUpGitHub/ @lealternative

@GrapheneOS@grapheneos.social maybe a stupid question of someone who is new to #graphene_os will the update pushed through to the App Store or must it be installed from #github (e.g. by using #Obtainium). Or a completely different way? Thanks in advance to everyone for helping.

I am tackeling my next project in moving away from #BigTech and #USTech companies. This one is one that is really hard for me, and that pains me a bit: I’m moving away from #GitHub - it’s hard for me, because I’ve been brought up with #SVN and instantly fell in love with #DVCS, and with #git I instantly also started using GitHub. And I really used it like their slogan suggested: Like “facebook for programmers”. I followed friends and colleagues, followed projects I loved and people that seemd interesting to me, and even had a couple of discussions that started with a commit or new repository on Github. Plus, I love their mascot and have a huge amount of stickers featuring #Octocat - to me GitHub was a crucial part of my programming hobby and upbringing.

However, since #Microsoft accquired it, my engagement got less, even though I stayed, because no other solution at that time was remotely what I wanted and loved about GitHub.

Since then, lots of things have happend; GitHub fired people that spoke out against the capitol attack, it does business with ICE, and is now monetizing the works of millions of open source developers with their integration of AI in GitHub that you never agreed to and cannot opt out of. And GitHub’s parent company openly supports Trump, and meddles in international juristriction and politics by blocking political enemies of the Trump regime from their accounts (i.e. the E-Mail account of ICC Prosecutors).

I think I won’t delete my old GitHub account; but active and new repositories will be moved to @Codeberg@social.anoxinon.de - I am not sure if it is the right home for me, or if I long-term will be hosting my own @gitea@social.gitea.io or @forgejo@floss.social instance; but for a start I think it is the right thing to do, and as I am currently working on something I would like to put under versioning, now is the best time to do it. So if you want to follow along, here is my new repository host:

Gentoo Linux is "liberating" its code. To avoid forced Copilot integration, the project is migrating its PR workflow to @Codeberg. More details here: https://ostechnix.com/gentoo-migration-codeberg-github-exit/ #Gentoo #Linux #OpenSource #Codeberg #Github #Copilot

@cstross@wandering.shop And on Usenet. There was a parallel to that 'MJ Rathbun', that went after Scott Shambaugh this week, from back in the tail end days of significant Usenet trolls. https://mastodonapp.uk/deck/@JdeBP/116060705914714390 A follow-up post by Shambaugh reported that the 'AI agent' had been widely cheered on in some quarters. So now there's even more training data for the next robot. https://theshamblog.com/an-ai-agent-published-a-hit-piece-on-me-part-2/ @n1xnx@tilde.zone @keith_lawson@mastodon.social @GossiTheDog@cyberplace.social @quixoticgeek@social.v.st #AIs #LLMs #AIpocalypse #matplotlib #GitHub

I can no longer make an account with google. If I want to contribute on github I need to go to the phone store to make a google account through the android interface. They've even disabled the half-broken ways of creating sock accounts. Two step verification is horse shit and github can go make love to themselves for deleting my proton alias account. --- #gFreeZone #fuckGoogle #fuckGithub #google #github #codeberg #gitlab #git #privacy #security #moderation #cypherpunk #buildItYourself

TIL that Github does not have IPv6. Which is pretty ridiculous for anytime in the last decade, but in 2026, for a site that big and important? Better go to Codeberg... #Github #IPv6

So #GitHub Actions only lets me rerun all jobs, all failed jobs or a single job — not a subset of jobs. On top of that, if I rerun anything, I can't do anything until it finishes, and I can't cancel a single job without cancelling everything. Truly great UX. So now I have to choose between either starting a few very long-running jobs one by one, and waiting for every one to finish before manually starting the next one, or starting all failed jobs, including a bunch of jobs that will rerun unnecessarily.

Has anyone noticed that the very useful prose describing the contents of a git repository, what is comprised of (the software the source code is for, the language), how to interact with it (what are the conventions and standards of the project), and even hints as to how to understand it all as a gestalt, has only recently been added in Markdown files intended to be read by LLMs? Like, you could have written all that helpful prose for people but you never did! #ai #llm #git #github

hypercentralizers are not having a good day today -- #github has joined #cloudflare to block or slow down millions of folks from doing stuff. Maybe a good time to checkout out this new ACLU article about the current Apple/Google app-store oligopoly https://www.aclu.org/news/free-speech/app-store-oligopoly TL;dr Google/Apple increasingly wield their world-wide #appcontrol in the political interests of various governments, and not in the interest of user security or privacy. The article lays out three areas of fighting back ...
