The topic was discussed several times. I'll add more info later.

TODO: pros vs cons.

In the recent months I noticed something I didn't notice before - my blocker started to block requests to Google Analytics from select GitHub pages.

GnuPG project has an interesting software suite deployed at dev.gnupg.org since 2017. "Development Hub" is a reasonable name. It runs Phabricator. Some notable users are listed on its wiki page.

Without any research, things I don't like about Phabricator is that it comes from Facebook, is written in PHP and uses some silly names (Phabricator itself, Phriction the wiki, Maniphest the bug tracker, and Phacility the company that maintains it).

What I do like is the concept of an integrated set of tools with nice UX (including working without javascript for the parts I visited).

Looks like GitHub Actions stopped working for free repos a few days ago, despite the claims that they should be available.

$ git checkout master
error: pathspec 'master' did not match any file(s) known to git.

This is so annoying. It is fixable in Settings > Repositories but the fact they didn't push back on this is disappointing.
