The author pronounces it [aɡe̞] with a hard g, like GIF, and is always spelled lowercase.

I can't be the only one to think GIF is a terrible example for pronunciation?

It sounds like your process isn't working because you're treating Tuesday's deadline as just a feature freeze rather than a full freeze.

If you want to go ahead with the full freeze then if it fails QA the feature should simply be rejected. Revert the change make the fixes and wait for the next Tuesday deadline to resubmit it.

If you're keen to continue the feature freeze then you need to move forward the freeze deadline and agree very specific timings with QA. For example: Feature freeze at 9 am Tuesday morning - so devs must submit all features before end of the day Monday. QA have all Tuesday to review for a deadline 9 am Wednesday.

That gives the dev at a minimum some time on Wednesday to address any issues, but more likely QA can come back quicker so they'll have some time on Tuesday as well.

Dev must submit fixes before a 2 pm deadline on Wednesday. QA do a second review and have all feedback by 9 am Thursday at which point it's simple commit/revert.

If the DuckDuckGo result for your search doesn't yield anything then just append it with g! and it'll take you straight to the Google results.

It's a useful trick but very rarely do I find I need it. Only really when researching a very specific error.

Proton Mail and Tutanota always rank high on lists of privacy friendly email providers.

That was added in the previous release - v0.0.40 https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/pull/998

You don't have to look at reducing your Google use as a monumental effort. You can slowly transfer, minimise the number of services you use.

Simple - Switch your default search provider to Duck Duck Go.

Easy - Switch to Firefox

Mid - export your documents from Google Drive

Complex - Transfer your primary email to another provider.

I wonder if they're just testing the waters to see if the sentiment has changed at all. They'll probably keep posting similar at regular intervals to verify that the backlash is subsiding.

It sounds like your issue is with capitalism rather than GitHub. The same logic is applicable to many corporations.

Has GitHub actually done anything negative? Your comments really just sound like fear mongering, I can't see any actual issues.

What is the bloat you're referring to? The UI is clean and simple. Navigating and searching code is intuitive. The issue tracker is basic but reliable. Releases are clear. GitHub Actions are complex but featureful and incredibly useful. GitHub Packages are basic but useful. GitHub Copilot is damn impressive.

Brand guidelines almost always state not to stylise the logo, so this would be the correct way of doing things.

We should think about starting a GoFundMe to get the author the mental health support they so clearly need

Angry old man angry

Damn, You weren't kidding. the article would be comical if it weren't so worrying for his mental state.
