I find it ridiculous that they started with github in the first place, but who am I to judge. It is ironic that in order to contribute a non-github solution, you still need to create a github account to make a PR.
@onlinepersona I’m quite certain that if you have a working solution, visible somewhere on internet, you can ping them on zulip/discourse to ask someone to pull your code.
Oh really? 🤔 Every project on Github that I’ve tried to contribute to from outside has been resistant to it. But maybe I could give cargo.io a try. Zulip you say? Interesting choice… requires creating yet another account since it doesn’t seem to be federated…
@onlinepersona Given that this subject was already brought up, and regular people from the project said that their is interest for removing the dependency to github (but not leave it, Microsoft is one of the top contributor), I assume that some people would be willing to help the integration a working prototype.
