| We can of course host our code elsewhere, the problem is the community is kind of locked-in. It would be very "expensive" to move, and would have to be very worthwhile. So far the math doesn't support that kind of change. Usually an outage is not a big deal, I can still work locally. Today I just happen to be in a very GH-centric workflow with the security reports and such. I'm curious how other maintainers maintain productivity during GH outages. |

| ▲ | gostsamo 8 hours ago | parent [-] | | Yep, I get you about the community. As an alternative, I thought mainly as a secondary repo and ci in case that Github stops being reliable, not only as the current instability, but as an overall provider. I'm from the EU and recently catch myself evaluating every US company I interact with and I'm starting to realize that mine might not be the only risk vector to consider. Wondering how other people think about it. |

| > have you considered moving or having at least an alternative Not who you're responding to, but my 2 cents: for a popular open-source project reliant on community contributions there is really no alternative. It's similar to social media - we all know it's trash and noxious, but if you're any kind of public figure you have to be there. |

| ▲ | gostsamo 8 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | I get that, but if we all rely on the defaults, there couldn't be any alternatives. |

| You are talking to the maintainer of caddy :) Edit- oh you probably meant an alternative to GitHub perhaps.. |
