Well that is sad, I think developers want freedom from the big companies, hope that they do Github justice instead of the likes of Nokia and skype, as for Bitcoin, they are not that affected as they are only using Github for its ease of access and community and not source code mentioned by one of the Bitcoin Developers in squatters link.
So, GitLab it is? Or will we see a resurgence in SourceForge?
Ultimately, it seems like decentralized repositories will be the best long term solution. Apparently, establishing new code-signing and merging protocols will take some time and effort, so I wonder if it makes sense to adopt a centralized replacement in the meantime. It sounds like
it's not an urgent issue.
