It's a philosophical thing. I want to own my presence on the web, not rent it. So even when I'm using 3rd party services, I want a subdomain I own to point them out, so you can say like "here's the authoritative link", and if microsoft goes and enshittens github, I can just redirect it to codeberg or whatever comes next.
I think it works now though. It's a pain to migrate several dozen nginx sites, especially with browsers helpfully remembering stale redirects for weeks.
- Liquix 3y ago> if microsoft goes and enshittens github between mandatory 2FA "for your safety", the copilot scandal, and the way M$ treated paying mojang customers who refused to make microsoft accounts - github's future looks bleak. IMHO it's just a matter of time before the inevitable email: "all github accounts are being migrated to microsoft accounts. your github credentials will no longer work after mm/dd/2026. please migrate to continue using github." codeberg is excellent.
