Developers Frustrated with GitHub Prod For Changes In Bug Reports, Transparency
DeveloperTech reports that a group of GitHub developers have posted an open letter, with nearly 1300 signatures, expressing dissatisfaction with GitHub's processes and policies, and in particular the site's level of transparency. A slice of the letter: "Those of us who run some of the most popular projects on GitHub feel completely ignored by you. We’ve gone through the only support channel that you have given us either to receive an empty response or even no response at all," he wrote. "We have no visibility into what has happened with our requests, or whether GitHub is working on them. Since our own work is usually done in the open and everyone has input into the process, it seems strange for us to be in the dark about one of our most important project dependencies."
That is why I only use sourceforge. It is completely transparent. As an added bonus I get malware with my downloads.
They should make their money off of concerts and selling tshirts and merchandise.
I know. That is why I said it. Only my beard is ironic.
People still give a crap about GitHub since political correctness and the secular vehicle of religious moralism (social justice warriors) overtook it?
Damn. I guess it's appropriate to call it GitCancer. You just can't get rid of it.
GitHub is GitLab? You could be a /. editor!
