I don't understand the significance of this link. It's some random people saying the title. Why not link to the github repo?

- Dylan16807 3y agoHN really doesn't like editorialized titles. And the repo title wouldn't mention the news. Maybe it would be allowed in this case, but a tweet or similar is safer.
- Repulsion9513 3y ago> Please submit the original source. If a post reports on something found on another site, submit the latter. So: submit the GitHub link > Otherwise please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize. So: use what the link says, which in this case might perhaps be "xz repository has been disabled by GitHub"
- dec0dedab0de 3y agoAgreed, This link is a little bit better since it includes other discussion, but I believe it already had an HN thread https://gist.github.com/thesamesam/223949d5a074ebc3dce9ee78baad9e27?permalink_comment_id=5005917#gistcomment-5005917 https://gist.github.com/thesamesam/223949d5a074ebc3dce9ee78b...
