GITHUB AND ITS CONSEQUENCES, A DISASTER FOR THE HUMAN RACE?

NO! IT'S EVEN WORSE!

First of all, github was adquired by [microsoft] so it began to suck and most people moved to gitlab, which is also as harmful, but here i'm shitting in github

first of all, the thing depends in JS stupidly, the fucking dates of the repos are generated client-side (rather server side like any sane git server would do) (gitea, gitweb and cgit do this) (Dunno about gitlab)

Also, they use some kind of stupid JS which basically doesn't work under pale moon, no seriously, i cannot use github in palemoon because the things will simply not run.

And well, isn't it ironic that github is proprietary but encourages the sharing of source code? Well, always have been proprietary but microsoft is probably making it more proprietary lol

DMCA takedowns

My country, 'tis of thee, Sweet land of liberty, Of thee I sing; Land where my fathers died, Land of the pilgrims' pride, From ev'ry mountainside Let freedom ring!

GitHub is based in the Land of the Free (the place which you can call yourself free, but cannot download a torrent, i mean United States), it implies it can be DMCA'd

Well, youtube-dl, a very great program I use nearly every day, got dmca'd for some reason i simply can't understand.

Why did it get dmca'd? literally no reason, youtube-dl is only a program to download youtube videos (and from other sites). I guess they dmca'd it because you can use it to download copyrighted material, alright, then dmca'd all the browsers, because you can use them to download (and view) copyrighted material
