  Big move. I'm still a big fan of GitHub but there is a growing friction that I'm having a hard time reconciling on the platform: I feel the human touch on GitHub almost completely disappearing. I'm having a really terrible time deciphering between a human talking to me vs AI, and I have almost the exact same problem when it comes to how I send messages myself. I try to prepend "sent by Claude" when it's posting comments with my username, but there is no built in GitHub features to handle the difference naturally, and that's a huge problem imo

  @stremio Please take a look at the Samsung TV app bug. there are several issues on github already

  GitHub could fix their problems by banning a handful of Indian accounts, but y’all ain’t ready for that convo

  The minute people started using non-distributed Version Control features on @GitHub was the minute we doomed ourselves as a profession. We need multi-server remote names, and people should be hosting *** repos in multiple places. Plus - stop using Pull Requests.

  @rsoxmadrid @zachlloydtweets We tried reproducing it, but couldn't. Would you mind opening a GitHub issue with a bit more details so we can get any problems fixed?

  @misterrpink1 @pronoy @vibetalentwork Your GitHub public contribution graph (the green squares). Any day with ≥1 public commit, PR, issue, or review counts. Miss a day → streak resets. Private repos don't count.

  @EroticAlmondd @jayin_around yea, but it lacks some features like keybind. Regardless tho, their GitHub issue tracker felt like that no one maintained it lmfao

  @matsonj @nbaschez that is totally the problem. github needs to rethink their offering.

  @GergelyOrosz No, as a GitHub user, there isn't a better alternative right now, and hey, if something is broken go out and touch grass, you don't have to stare at it. The GitHub action tier is also very generous and difficult to replace.

  @vpetryniak @tan_stack when you say @tan_stack, what in particular do you mean? also did you create GitHub issues for those "page crashes"?

  @artem_grebenkin @mitchellh @jack Ghostty (Mitchell Hashimoto's terminal emulator) is leaving GitHub. He's been a daily user since 2008 (user 1299) and loved it for 18+ years, but frequent outages and broken infrastructure (Actions, PRs, issues) now block work almost daily. He's genuinely sad but says it's no longer reliable for shipping software. They'll migrate incrementally and keep a read-only mirror. More details on the new home coming soon.

  @justinhammon_ Haha your on it man that's awesome, I've never really used GitHub but local vm is what got me into all this(introduction to oracle) but man what your doing is half the battle, constant checkpoints so you don't have to rework all the time right? I remember spending 3 days on a local PC app, and 2 days trying to fix it just for all these apps to go into my storage repo never used. So I bought a **** ton of domains and getting them as live webapps and all the webapps are on their own servers so that's been great not worrying about making backups bc I got storage for each system.

  @SanmaxqDc Please create an issue on GitHub if you are experiencing any issues

  @mitchellh I have also left github and shall never return. Host your own code. Its cheap. *** is a DVCS. Distributed Version Control System, by design. Github centralised distributed version control, and that's the entire problem. Self-host your own gitea, or forgejo instance, and federate.

  Hey @satyanadella If you gave me a week trial as CEO, I could save @github but as it stands, you're gonna lose the company. I'm not trying to be a jerk. I'm just sad I'm never allowed to fix anything. My life is watching so-called rational CEOs do everything wrong & backwards.

  @bstaples Hey, have you fixed the bug where it’s impossible to add SSH keys to an account if using Firefox? None of the other *** frontends (GitHub, Sourceforge, Bitbucket, Sourceforge, Forgejo, etc.) have this issue.

  So, can we go back to saying Rails can't scale or are we waiting for an even bigger GitHub outage?

  alireza (@alireza94) reported 41 minutes ago

  am i missing something? because these days people talk about building a github alternative like it's a trivial task after almost two decades since the launch of github, the closest competitor is gitlab (which only offer sub-par experience). i attribute this to the fact that: 1. there are too many features and details 2. there are some levels of network effects also part of the github's problem is sudden surge of load. what makes people believe that competitor can handle this load? (having read a better portion of gitlab source code, i'm confident gitlab can't) yes, someone can try and capture parts of the workflows but it won't be a github alternative. some of this can be built: - "a code versioning system for a specific company" - "a *** server optimized for agents" - "a directory for showing off open source projects" but a github, as a whole, alternative cannot be built in shorter time than it takes to for github to fix its main issue: stability however, i'd be glad if someone tries. if they do their job well, either they would succeed or at least, force github to fix its issues

  Everyone blaming microsoft for github outage, no one blaming ai agents that are creating 100-1000x more commits and prs daily. People who didnt know what github is are also using it with ai agents. So a platform this old needs time to adapt to this sudden and this large change

  Ankit Jain (@ankitxg) reported 50 minutes ago

  It's not only GitHub that's broken, software delivery is broken at scale. The infrastructure that powers modern software delivery, like *** hosting, CI, code review, merge automation, deployments etc. was designed for a world where humans wrote code at human speed. We're not in that world anymore. And the answer isn't just "scale the infrastructure." It's rethinking what CI means, what code review means, and what verification looks like when the code is written by agents.

  Hashicorp's founder said github "isn't a place for serious work" yesterday while github was down for 4 hours Microsoft paid $7.5 billion in 2018 to own the infrastructure every developer on earth depends on They have not figured out how to keep it on

  I so badly wish that one company building a github alternative didn't pivot to ai slop nonsense; we actually would've had a good github competitor before this outage stuff started. Now we're gonna have people scramble to build github alternatives that are also going to be slop
