    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 leaving Github for me was such a sigh of relief. I hope it is for you too.Looking forward to hearing about where you end up, if only to suggest to other folk 🙂

      @mitchellh Fair enough. What alternative are you considering moving to?

          @mitchellh Probably for the best. Down in this thread there's a graph with the uptime of GitHub since before Microsoft acquired it until this day.

          It's been degraded.

            @mitchellh 1388 over here. Codeberg feels solid, maybe not for anyone outside the EU.

              @mitchellh The more people I see exiting from GitHub, the more I hope people write guides on doing so.

              At the moment, the thing that's making it hard for me is GitHub Actions, which I use a lot. Also, I wish I could find an alternative to pr-release that works with Codeberg.

                        @mitchellh I don't trust large companies because "for profit" means you'll eventually get skewered. (See the freely available movie The Corporation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Corporation_(2003_film)) So I run my own #Forgejo and I am happy as a clam knowing that nobody can take it away.

                                @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.

                                  Coming months. I took that to mean he wasn't ready to share. Maybe a misinterpretation on my part.

                                          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
