I think I have made peace with the fact that it is time to move off of GitHub for my personal repositories. When GitHub was bought by Microsoft, I knew that the writing was on the wall. Their feed-the-beast strategy and love for LLM slop doesn't appeal to me at all; I want a more ethical place for my code to sit! Really, what I want is effectively a repository backup with the ability to use CI/CD (for automating builds and deploying this website, for example). The current plan is to move to Codeberg, which several FLOSS projects have done now (off the top of my head I can think of Zig and Gentoo) - they have Woodpecker CI which looks quite nice!

Also it is absurd that anyone thinks opt-out should be the default. That is not consent!
