Thanks, but Github is bad. It requires running proprietary javascript[1]
to create issues, pull requests and perform other basic tasks for
collaborations, and has many other issues[2] too, like suspected
laundering copyleft code into copilot. Since you are creating a new
mirror, why not choose a more ethical option[3] that respects user
freedom, like codeberg[4], notabug[5], pagure[6], or sr.ht[7]?
