Re: Github down, shards lost, repos rolled back

I would absolutely not condone moving off GitHub to a self-hosted git solution. To do so would be effectively kill our project in any meaningful sense.

There are ways to do things like Keep in sync your Git repos on GitHub, GitLab & Bitbucket but it seems like a lot of effort for a questionable reward to me.

Decentralizing has always seemed like a cool concept for the super-dedicated… but even if I start out that way, I eventually get bored. I used to play with all sorts of self-hosting things – and don’t really use any of them anymore. While everything I’ve stored on Flickr, Google, Facebook etc. is still there.

Microsoft hasn’t actually acquired GitHub yet, regulatory approval was ongoing when I last checked a week ago.

Just for what it is worth (1¥?): GitHub is now officially a part of Microsoft by Peter Bright / ArsTechnica

Microsoft quietly rolling out its long-planned phase 2 for GitHub?

Yes – tracking and profiling, one of MS big rising businesses… and a celebration of the gig economy – serfdom is good enough for all those uppity developers.

Interesting how much DHH seems to loathe RMS. The feeling is probably mutual.
