Give up GitHub?

With the move away from Reddit, maybe this is a good time to think about leaving the other proprietary platform as well?
This page and this blog list (I think) a bunch of good reasons to leave, and it seems nowadays there are good FOSS alternatives available.

Hey @rigrig

The move from reddit was not primarly because its a propriatary platform but because of two mayor points.

1. Reddit's recent policy/actions. We have several blog posts and explanations for that.
2. Reddit for what it was used, was not the best platform. The Question/Answer style posts were in the long run not really sustainable

Right now, github serves exactly what we need from it and it does it very good so i see not reason to change that just for the sake of changing it.

Ok, thanks for explaining

That's a fair point and I would like to bring up Codeberg.org as an option if should you need it if something happened on Github. I believe ens***tification will affect all non-free platforms eventually.
