Re^4: Adding recognition of Gemini to URI.pm?

It's unfortunate that the module is still mirrored on GitHub in 2024, soon 2025, just over six years after it fell. That actively excludes a large number of people. While relatively unskilled, I am nonetheless among the majority who closed their old GitHub accounts as soon as the sale was announced. I am open for just about any other hosting service, but I will not be rejoining GitHub. If the GitHub archive is a mirror only, and the actual repository is elsewhere, then my preference is for the one elsewhere. Is there one?

The "majority" of people closed their Github accounts when Microsoft bought them in 2018? Are we sure about that? I'm not so sure about that.	[reply]

I'm not sure either. I had one and did not close it. I did delete all my repos, though. It seems very likely that some people went scorched earth on them, some played along and probably the majority went somewhere in between. I have of course absolutely no evidence to back this up. :-) 🦛	[reply]

"Fell"? I'm not a fan of Microsoft's monopolistic practices, going back decades, but GitHub is pretty good. GitHub Actions is very good, and better than Travis ever was. I think life is too short, and the things remaining to be done too numerous, to be that ideological.	[reply]
