This is majoritarian thinking. It's like architects neglecting, for centuries, to include step-free access in public buildings, because "Most people are OK with it." It excludes others. Not everyone has, or can have, a Microsoft (GitHub) account. Not everyone uses proprietary JavaScript or is otherwise able to report bugs or submit patches GitHub. > Move the CI and repos and issues and even discussions to github No, please DO NOT move OpenWRT core infrastructure to GitHub. > so the resource-limited core developers can focus on evolving openwrt > itself, instead of spending cycles on its infrastructure. If OpenWRT devs/maintainers want to outsource code/bug-hosting, please look at accessible FOSS hosts like SourceHut, as previously mentioned.
