i hate #Microsoft, but i think one of my friends IRL has convinced me to just migrate to #GitHub instead dealing with self-hosting my repos.. ..his main comment was: "self-hosting is awesome, until it isn't -- stuff breaks at the least convenient time"

Ruling your own country is an even worse experience. Would be so easy to let the colonisers back in and let them take charge. We could then have 99% uptime with a good currency and easier travel between the colonies... Is (political and tech) #independence overrated?
Worst case I'd recommend mirroring the repo to Github and not having Microsoft as the only option.
