Road to success (2024 AI Hype Edition):

1. Clone VSCode.
2. Rename it as LSCode, squash all history, and create some random commits with --author="Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>".
3. Add a character AI that calls your code garbage.
4. Profit.

GitHub constantly becomes more bloated, clunky and privacy/license concerning AI BS. It almost feels like using 2010 TFS server with git flavor. Unfortunately, It has a huge user base and it’s hard to incentivize people to use other platforms.

It’s easier for well-established projects to host their own git infrastructure. But for new projects and solo developer, it harder to get interaction on other platforms. I think that’s why even Gitea team uses GitHub as a main location for development. Similarly, I still mirror my public repositories to GitHub for the same reasons even though I prefer using my own Gitea server.

Jiatan probably is in shambles right now. Poor guy spends years to infiltrate in a project and got caught. Meanwhile CrowdStrike took whole infrastructure down with a single update.
