Are you guys fine with these new shenanigans from Github. I found a bug and wanted to check what has been the development on that, only to find out most of the discussion was hidden by github and requesting me to sign-in to view it.

It threw me straight back to when Microsoft acquired Github and the discussions around the future of opensource on a microsoft owned infrastructure, now microsoft is exploiting free work from the community to train its AI, and building walls around its product, are open source contributors fine with that ?

        There isn’t anything I see either. The only reference is being built similar to Bitcoin’s Lightning network (while also it says it is inspired by Secure Scuttlebutt & BitTorrent (hence “seeding” a repo)). It doesn’t solve my issues in the space, but it is at least trying something novel.
