       (To c&p something I said over on twitter because I think y'all will appreciate it more)When Github goes down, FOSS effectively stops right now. It's tragic that we've allowed a single company to gain such control over the open commons.I recognize that we are in this situation mostly because the 'distributed' side of git is only usable by experts. And I recognize the niche that GH fills (ticketing and PRs in lieu of emailed patches)(1/2)

       the end result here is that the technical deficiencies in git create a barrier to non-experts which has led us to grant an american corporation exclusive control of vast swathes of the FOSS commons. This will not end well.2/2
