Actions should be decoupled from the version control system.
- maccard 2mo agoI disagree. The integrated workflow of actions, issues, code review and source control is a huge productivity win. There’s a reason people chase a “single pane of glass”.
- rewgs 2mo agoA website where one views and interacts with all of these things does not necessitate that all of these things run on the same system. Since this most recent GitHub outage, I'm looking into modularizing my git server, issues, and actions; there's no reason why one going down should bring down all the others.
- fg137 2mo agoIn theory, sure, but the reality is that "development activity" revolves around "codebase". Plenty of projects have separate bug tracker, source code control and CI system. Most people likely prefer GitHub's all-in-one solution, especially for small-medium open source projects.
- shimman 2mo agoAnd do we not see how terrible this is as a result? Hitching your tent to corporations, especially American corporations, is always an exercise in misery.

- rcleveng 2mo agoMostly they joined the chat to show you what real misery is. I tried Jira and they couldn't even handle simple billing without screwing it up. Ugh
- pavo-etc 2mo agoI recently had to rebuild a jira frontend from scratch just so a single jira tab didn't take down my 8gb MacBook. Support only the subset of features I actually use and it's great. Makes me hate jira even more.

- fg137 2mo agoI'm not saying it's an objectively "good" solution, just how damn smooth the experience is.
- Groxx 2mo agoThey've already separated the wiki's version control, why not CI? And the issues/discussions are just vendor lock-in wrapped in a shiny UI.
