People have flocked to Bluesky and Threads. But the new platforms risk repeating a pattern that has caused social media giants to turn against their own users.

Why are people talking about useless social networks and not the ones that actually matter?

Lets talk Github people. Can Github escape the enshittification trap? Because not even Sourceforge escaped enshittification... and Github is now owned by Microsoft.

So far GitHub under MS seems better than before. But I still plan to move all my projects to GitLab, because I don't trust them. But it's gonna be hard.

Some parts are better. Github actions is still a dumpster fire.
