Give Up GitHub!

https://sfconservancy.org/GiveUpGitHub/

[...] as a proprietary, trade-secret tool, GitHub itself is the very opposite of FOSS.

GitHub has warped Git — creating add-on features that turn a distributed, egalitarian, and FOSS system into a centralized, proprietary site. And, all those add-on features are controlled by a single, for-profit company. By staying on GitHub, established FOSS communities bring newcomers to this proprietary platform — expanding GitHub's reach. and limiting the imaginations of the next generation of FOSS developers.
