Clarify which repository is the primary one

[Francewhoa]

Challenge

The challenge is that there is a confusion between the two code repositories of wxHexEditor. SourceForge & GitHub. Which repository is the primary one?

Links

• https://sourceforge.net/projects/wxhexeditor/
• https://github.com/EUA/wxHexEditor

Resolution

To resolve this challenge, I suggest updating the homepage of both repository to communicate to all users with repository is the primary one and which one is the secondary one.

@EUA :) As maintainer of wxHexEditor, feel really free to use any repository to your liking as primary repository. For your consideration and your decision, I suggest to use SourceForge as your primary repository, and use GitHub as your secondary (mirror) repository. Why? Because SourceForge has much stronger privacy and security than GitHub. Why? Because, since June 4th, 2018, GitHub is owned by Microsoft. And Microsoft has a very long history of weak security, weak privacy, and weak ethic.

• Source Microsoft acquired GitHub at https://archive.md/6cQoG • Source Microsoft's GitHub weak privacy & security. Just a few of many examples: • Windows 10 vulnerability used to Rickroll Github at https://archive.md/eAh9l • GitHub & Exchange vulnerabilities at https://archive.md/Di1cv • Major security flaw with GitHub at https://archive.md/wip/oHBT1 • GitHub’s source code was leaked at https://archive.md/2AQjf

Allegedly Microsoft's GitHub did harassment, sanctions, and censorship. How long before GitHub censors users in Turkey? Which is where the author of wxHexEditor resides.

Codeberg & NotABug

My favorite alternatives to GitHub are https://codeberg.org and https://notabug.org List of other free online alternatives to GitHub with stronger security & privacy at https://alternativeto.net/software/github/?license=opensource&platform=online

Hi @Francewhoa GitHub is primary repo. Other one is just for ... history. About github owning by Microsoft... Do you mean company that release it's own Linux :laughing: Yeah. I don't like them. But I don't need security or privacy for wxHexEditor. It's kust my hobby that I spare my time on it. I can't continue development for a years due... coding BTC Trade BOT. But I want to continue coding ... soon. Bests.
