Omarchy on Asahi creator lost access to his GitHub account two weeks ago due to some automated process flagging his account. Repo went offline and has been since. Not even me personally reaching out to GitHub twice has been able to restore his account. Terrifying. Embarrassing.
Replying to @maralcbr and @dhh
Sadly, no. GitHub, like every other corporation, has too much red tape to get through. I’ve given up on them and now I’m migrating to Codeberg.
I can only imagine the task to keep GitHub safe from scams and malware, but when the system results in false positives, it's utterly unacceptable that after two weeks it still isn't rectified. Seriously undermines trust in GitHub as a platform and dependency. Not what they need.
Glad to see this finally get sorted.
Well,
@github
finally admitted that it was their fault. I know they’re quoting “technical issue” but we all know that’s just jargon to evade liability. I want to thank
@dhh
and the open-source community for supporting me through this whole debacle.
if two personal escalations from dhh can't fix it, normal support tickets are decorative
