Yeah, I'm not sure what this article is even trying to say; this has been happening for a while now.

Like, it's shitty, but it's not even the shittiest thing Github has done. I'm more annoyed about the whole AI stuff, the fact that they have de-facto veto powers on most open source projects and that they don't let you have multiple accounts to separate your professional life from your cringe life.

Modern times are really "people should get off of X platform but don't because people don't want to move".

Modern times are really “people should get off of X platform but don’t because people don’t want to move”.

More like "people should get off of X platform but don't because people they regularly interact with don't want to move, and because herd mentality"

It's the same reason why people tolerate YouTube's bullshit. The audience won't switch to a platform without content, and the content creators won't switch to a platform without an audience.
