Git and GitHub are not the same thing
I know. and there are many other ways to host your code. The current GitHub outage shows that most Git users just can't live without a commercial entity stewarding their code though.
It's a convenient way to work together remotely. I'm in the US and my partner for a project is in Portugal. GitHub isn't the only solution, but it's very convenient.
Yeah, saying “most GitHub users can’t live without a commercial entity” is such a nonsense. GitHub is successful while it works well. The moment it doesn’t, there will be other services.
I don't see it. How does downtime show that?
The reactions are shocked enough.
