I'm a bit out of the loop, why are people moving away from Github?
Zero to one nines of uptime. Shoving copilot in everyone’s faces rather than focusing on quality. Threatening to charge people for self-hosted runners.
Gosh. We're going from software to slopware.
> “I'm GitHub user 1299, joined Feb 2008,” How do you find out what "github user #" you are?
`curl https://api.github.com/users/YOUR_USER_HERE ` then look for the id in the payload. "id": 2851 Or look at the html source of your avatar, https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/2851?v=4

As place to run test? Build your own infrastructure. It's easier than ever. Why rely on blackboxes to do that?
Is Gitlab doing better at this point? Or where do they stand?
Nothing is pissing me off more than GitHub's stability going down the tubes RIGHT as work is migrating everything, and I mean everything, from CircleCI to GH. The wildest thing is that Azure Repos/Pipelines was better than this. Their one caveat is also that they are still migrating it to Azure infra, so it's possible that's still in a one foot in one foot out kinda scenario, from what I've heard. But, this isn't ins…
They're claiming a huge increase in traffic due to vibe coded projects. It might just be an excuse, but it certainly seems plausible to me.

Two weeks ago I had a commission to explore migrating from selfhosted gitlab to github for better AI integration. Last night that project was cancelled due to github outages and we're going to upgrade the self hosted server instead. I'd be tempted to use something like forgejo but there are a dozen devs and honestly I've only ever used it solo.

I simply do not care.
Customers pay for a service. If they don't get what they paid for, it's perfectly reasonable and normal to go elsewhere.
Why do people on HN keep apologizing on the behalf of trillion-dollar companies?

everyone knew M$ would ruin github the fake surprise is so fake
M$ bought GH almost a decad ago. Instability is more due to mainstream traffic, combined (+ AI automation pushes on pointless repos) than some slow motion evil mastermind plot. Hanlon's razor applies.
They're part of a trillion(!!!)-dollar company and want to be an essential part of SW dev workflow. They ought to act like it.
