I wish the sr.ht employees the best of luck with the AMS migration. Luckily git is decentralized enough that I've been able to practically do everything the last few days except that I can't push new releases of software to the canonical upstream repository.

Erm... AWS migration? What am I missing? A DDoS on AWS would most likely bankrupt Drew and Sourcehut, even if Amazon managed to absorb the traffic. Not to mention the principial issues that they have with AWS in the first place.

  AMS ≠ AWS :P

    Erm, apologies, thank you for the correction. I'm embarrassed. :)

Also, the fact sourcehut does not baby users about git send-email means that collaborative development happening on the platform is uniquely posed to continue

  sure, i can `git send-email` to the particular developers i've collaborated with before, but by default my send-email goes to just the list-serve at `~user/project@lists.sr.ht`. pulling out `nc lists.sr.ht 25` seems to show that it's also offline. so, yes for really important stuff i could get patches through to projects i care about. but in practice the handful of projects i'm involved in on sr.ht seem to be mostly stalled.

    Yeah. My comment was largely optimistic, in practice people would rather just wait for service. That being said, I did send a small patch directly by email just for the fun of it.
