I am just very wary of making generalizations like that. If Github has millions of people using it, and millions more in the ecosystem, there's many, many good folks among them that just need to be shown the way.

Not believing that is so is like putting yourself on a remote island to be angry at the world :)

But it can be hard to deal with the ignorant, and keep responding to their arguments. It requires energy and stamina and can be very deflating at times.

@humanetech@mastodon.social @blacklight@social.platypush.tech @ArneBab@rollenspiel.social Millions that seemingly don't care about free software, otherwise they wouldn't be supported a closed platform in the first place. They support proprietary tooling, and the common support channel for projects on #Github is a #Slack or #Discord community. The average Github user doesn't contribute anything of value, and doesn't care about the morality of anything. Yes, maybe a dozen or so per year grow up to see the error in their ways, but I don't think it's "good enough" to try and make every other forge into a Github-like shitfest. It doesn't attract quality people.
