But this is not a platform where people can browse others' repositories. Or I'm not aware?

So we centralised our code and communication to a single company who sold out, and the alternative proposal is to centralise our code and communication to a different single company who may or may not sell out depending on the circumstances? Just because it's encrypted doesn't mean they won't still have power over us - the WhatsApp controversy comes to mind. The real solution to power is decentralisation, federation, free software, and yes, encryption too.

For a decentralized solution please check #72 @Riamse

Hey guys. I love the work you've been doing. Not everyone loves mine. Please read Issue 114.

Hello,

The GitHub Evacuation Project has moved to GitLab (not an endorsement or even a final home). Your enthusiasm and contribution is still needed. Please check out the new project home, and read the project wiki for info to get restarted.

Thank you!
