Definitely going to be giving cloud9 another shot in the coming days. I spend a fair amount of time (and actually pay for a small slot) on Nitrous.io's PaaS, which I really like. The part about Nitrous.io that really, really, really sucks is the lack of root - you have to install everything (mostly) through "Smart Packages" which is basically just a wrapper around the install I guess, and requires you to build it. Any project with any real dependencies quickly becomes a pain. Some of the newer services (like terminal.com) actually DO give you root, which I'm assuming is OK because it's running on top of Docker? Either way, a nice front-end + root is awesome and I'll be giving it a shot.

login with github redirect to github for authorization and then does not work. No error message, just nothing. Click on login and you stay on the page.

Same problem here. It's actually doing the auth correctly, it seems, because I then went to the main home page again and it showed me as logged in, and I could get to my dashboard from there.

Didn't went that far, simply revoked access on my gh account.

Still no word on the OSS part. Last commit on master was November last year.

I like it as a service for my personal use and OSS work. But employers will mostly not allow me to use a hosted service to edit their code; I've tried.
