Github isn’t good enough . Everyone should look for more privacy , security based alternatives and support them . You should not give big corpos any more of your money . Besides it goes against every fiber of ethics of foss dev’s . I know most people will not agree with me because it’s hard to make the switch or github is the standard , more popular better logic but it doesn’t make sense because foss is there for privacy, security reasons and why would you host it all on one of the biggest and greediest corp of all time ? If you are building foss may as well take a little more effort and put it anywhere else maybe it’ll be cheaper too but definetly better in privacy , security functions and may grow or is aldready depending on what you are choosing better than github.

EDIT: To people who are saying this isn’t an unpopular opinion it isn’t on lemmy ( because we are privacy focused ) but it is everywhere else why do you think why a very , very large amount of people still use github.

    I guess what I was trying to say is that I am not willing to take up the risk of self-hosting my code or expend the effort to make sure this is well functioning and safe.
