Everyone can, but most just use Github. As a consequence they get to shape the development processes of pretty much anyone and also to do shit like this.

  "Shape" is too broad. Everyone has access to lots of almost identical tools from competitors. It's like saying Ford get to "shape" the driving experience of millions - so what? And switching Git provider is much easier than switching car.

    > "Shape" is too broad. Everyone has access to lots of almost identical tools from competitors. Exactly. That's precisely because Github is so big that nobody (except possibly sourcehut, but that's niche) dares to do anything differently and everyone just blindly copies whatever Github does. If that's not "shaping the development experience for everyone", I don't know what is.
