      You’re not “pretty fucked”. Just use one of the many other git hosts out there. OP himself lists some of them in his rant.

          Actually, you can do exactly that. Fork them.

          You can’t force the people who are using Github to follow you, of course. But that’s every individual’s choice.

          Oh, that’s what you meant. How do you contribute to a project on any git host if that git host won’t let you? In what way is GitHub any different from that?

              You think Microsoft is the only “evil corporation” among these? That’s very naive. Any hosting service will deplatform users when they can see a profit to be made from doing so.
