hey "haha github uptime lol" and all that but this is serious: some pull request merges were completely mangled yesterday and the repo may not be in the state that its maintainers expect. If your project processed any updates yesterday, please double-check https://www.githubstatus.com/incidents/zsg1lk7w13cf #github

I'm 100% out of ideas. Our servers cannot handle the load the AI/LLM web scraping bots place on #GitLab. #Radicle is turning out to still not be ready for prime-time. I refuse to use #GitHub beyond being a read-only mirror. Self-hosting our code repos is an absolute requirement in order to provide higher levels of OPSEC than what third-party hosted services can provide. So, at the hands of our oligarchic overlords, is this the death of HardenedBSD? Someone please provide me ideas. I have no idea what to try next and I'm desperate.

⚠️ Github CLI now has telemetry spyware built in:

https://cli.github.com/telemetry

They’re shifting the burden onto users by requiring YOU to opt out, instead of making it opt in.

Run gh config set telemetry disabled to disable it.

The #gitea developers concluded after 10 years that it is not able to host its own development and that they depend on #GitHub. https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/1029#issuecomment-4269181192 At the same time, the community fork @forgejo@floss.social is self-hosted for a long time and is also powering the popular @Codeberg@social.anoxinon.de and at least 8 other public instances. So this seem to be a good time to migrate if you haven't already. https://forgejo.org

⭐ Inside GitHub's Fake Star Economy ｢ Stars sell for $0.03 to $0.85 each on at least a dozen websites, Fiverr gigs, and Telegram channels - no dark web required VCs explicitly use stars as sourcing signals: Redpoint found the median star count at seed is 2,850, and firms run automated scrapers to find fast-growing repos ｣ https://awesomeagents.ai/news/github-fake-stars-investigation/ #github #opensource

Ruby Central report reopens wounds over RubyGems repo takeover https://www.theregister.com/2026/04/01/ruby_central_report/

Board-backed account of maintainer ouster is unlikely to settle row over governance, control, and trust

Ruby Central, a nonprofit that supports the #Ruby programming language ecosystem, just published an incident report regarding what it calls the September 2025 RubyGems fracture, when ownership of the #GitHub code repository behind the RubyGems package manager was wrested from existing maintainers.

What are sensible alternatives to GitHub for personal use if my code is shit and I want to use private repos? Preferably in EU. CodeBerg seems to be only for public projects where people are not ashamed of their code. Should I just self host? #git #github #eualternatives

My cache all email got some spam/phishing email with the link url being a github.io url. I am wondering if something scraped my Mastodon instance and misidentified the account, which doesn't have an email account created, as an email address. How do I report this to #github? #Phishing #Spam mail-auth-service-source dot github dot io/srf-client_id-REDACTED?emp=redacted@oldfriends.live is the link I'm looking for a link to report it to to github

GitHub ryhtyy kouluttamaan tekoälyään käyttäjiensä koodilla - käytännöstä pitää erikseen kieltäytyä Muutos koskee GitHub Copilotin käyttäjiä: jatkossa kaikki Copilotia käyttävät käyttäjät välittävät oletusarvoisesti ohjelmakoodia ja tietoja, joilla Copilotia jatkokoulutetaan. Tähän on joitain poikkeuksia, kuten yritysten yksityiset repot. Mutta muiden pitää halutessaan kieltäytyä tietojen käytöstä 24.4.2026 mennessä. https://dawn.fi/uutiset/2026/03/29/github-copilot-ryhtyy-kouluttamaan-tekoalyaan-kayttajiensa-koodilla #github #githubcopilot #tekoäly #yksityisyys #ohjelmointi #uutiset #teknologia #tekniikka

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:

https://codeberg.org/pygospa

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
