They seem to make the mistake many do which is to conflate git and GitHub (though TFA doesn't), because why would you adopt a proprietary hosted VCS (and a startup to boot which could disappear anyway)?
At least with GitHub you can pack up your repos and move elsewhere.
GitHub is certainly in trouble for many reasons. Git...maybe? But is the answer really a proprietary vc-funded ($5M seed) startup?
I do work at Mesa and I'm upfront about that in the article. But I cover cURL's bug bounty shutdown, Zig leaving GitHub, the Kai Gritun incident, jujutsu, Atomic Software, and maintainer burnout among other items.
Those problems are real independent of Mesa. I do shoutout an open source project we have called AgentBlame but don't talk about anything related to proprietary software or why Mesa is the end-all-be-all.
Thanks for your feedback, definitely did not mean for this to come across as an ad.

A code-first proprietary git-like clone.
