The repository will be hosted on GitHub, though the move is expected to take “at least six months before the migration begins.”

Another major opensource project that chooses a proprietary hosting platform 🤷

Let's be honest here, at least like 98% of the popular OSS is on GitHub at this point. You don't have to like it, but it's how things are

Doesn't mean that they have to continue putting stuff there. But oh well, maybe once ForgeFed becomes a real thing, things might change a little.

Moving to git is nice but I don't understand why they don't self-host a gitlab instance.

Imho the main argument for github is that it lowers the hurdle for new ane ad-hoc contributions like issues. I'm problably too lazy to registsr a new account for your instance just to open a bug report.

I'd love a federated git/issue/wiki thing
