I just deleted all my old non-fork repos from Microsoft #Github because of #Copilot and I would encourage every developer to do the same.

@phryk honestly, I wonder how viable it would be to introduce subtle bugs and vulnerabilities that would affect Copilot.

@rysiek @phryk From what I've seen of copilot code, it already contains subtle bugs.It's interesting, the people who are most likely to rely on copilot are also the same people who are least likely to find those bugs. Who is this thing for, really?

@phryk As someone who is just getting into dev can you elaborate on this a bit and recommend an alternative?

@CasinoslcoholGithub has ongoing deals with known human rights violator ICE, is owned by one of the most well-established enemies of FOSS and uses code from other people as basis for their proprietary code completion breakinga shitload of FOSS licenses.Alternatives:https://gitea.io https://gitlab.orghttps://sr.ht

@Casinoslcohol Personally, I've been hosting my own @gitea for a couple of years and like it very much – the team is also working at integrating federation features which is something I'm *extremely* excited about. :)If you want to try out a public instance of it have a look at @codeberg

@phryk @gitea @codeberg Thank you for the information. My current use of github is mostly to find existing projects. Do these other platforms have the ability to replace github?

@CasinoslcoholYou'll find a lot of stuff on #GitHub, but there's also a lot of stuff you can't find on #GiveUpGitHub, because it's hosted elsewhere. @phryk @gitea
