Ghostty is leaving GitHub. I'm GitHub user 1299, joined Feb 2008. I've visited GitHub almost every single day for over 18 years. It's never been a question for me where I'd put my projects: always GitHub. I'm super sad to say this, but its time to go. https://mitchellh.com/writing/ghostty-leaving-github
@mitchellh "GitHub is the place that has made me the most happy", I don't know man, that sounds grim.

@mitchellh It would be great to have a GitHub alternative that works in a distributed way, like Mastodon. Instead of everything being on one platform, people could host their own servers but still collaborate with others easily. This would give developers more control and reduce dependence on a single company.
@mabdalrahman that's what Forgejo (the software that codeberg runs on) is working on.
Protocol: https://forgefed.org/

@mitchellh we're big fans of @Codeberg . They're working on federation, so in the future there might a whole network of Forgejo instances. Worth the investment.

@mitchellh Is it mostly the outages like you describe in the post? Or is that just the latest problem?
For me, there are philosophical differences. The removal of the most popular "sponsor" option, meant I lost most of my sponsors a few years ago. The flippant answers from MS saying they were doing that "to provide more options", when it was obvious they were *removing* a popular option.
Their decision to train AI with our content, and also move the entire GitHub organization under their AI umbrella.
Codeberg is where I moved. If outages are an issue, then Codeberg may not be for you since they seem to suffer from DoS attacks every once in a while. But the philosophy when it comes to open source is what made me leave GitHub.
@charette @mitchellh I also expected to read more arguments like this tbh.

@mitchellh Despite the apparent composure, it’s quite emotional.

@mitchellh fair enough

This really feels like a service that can benefit from federation.

@mitchellh What are you choosing instead? I’m currently setting up a self-hosted Forgejo instance. However, it’s not an ideal solution until ForgeFed is stable and integrated.

@r0k @bitbraindev @mitchellh Isn't that the graph, that is green going back decades, because instead of saying they don't have past measurements, they are showing it as available by default? https://github.com/DaMrNelson/github-historical-uptime/issues/2

@SchwarzeLocke @r0k @mitchellh good catch, it makes the impact look more severe. That being said, it doesn't change the rest of the diagram which still does not look okay.
