Does Sourcehut still reject emails if there are both HTML and plaintext parts? Makes it tough to contribute without needing to set up a client that only sends plaintext email.

#13I moved my personal projects to Gitlab. Philosophical issues aside, it’s a great product.
Also, having borderline burnout maintaining popular open source projects on GitHub, there is refreshingly near zero issues filed on my Gitlab projects.
Fewer people already have accounts on Gitlab, creating a small barrier to participation, and sometimes that’s a good thing.

#20I accept that we all need to move off GitHub generally, I just haven't taken my projects off. (Because of microsoft ownership and general effects of being the hegemonic service, it will only serve its users' interests less and less.)
The network effect is pretty great, so that makes github a good place where lots of stuff is happening for hobby and open source projects.
