Hrm... Ya know, you'd think the extensions would move off of GitHub after everything...
Probably, GitHub isn't a good place for this type of projects. youtube-dl, CloudStream both got nuked in the past with DMCA
Gitlab/gitea might be better. GH is getting more and more DMCAed.
Im not git savvy, so:
It's harder for other devs to discover your project when you use the other Git forges (e.g. Gitlab).
Arguably a positive in cases like this.
Probably not wrong. But it's a double edged sword, if Tachiyomi wasn't hosted on Github it's likely that it wouldn't have gotten this far.
