Delighted to hear this! I’m working towards purging as many applications as I can that are hosted on GitHub and ffmpeg is one I use regularly.

Ditching a tool for another one because of where the source code is currently stored on? That sounds a little like the people's liberation army vs. the the liberation front of the people.

I mean, you do you, but please try not to use that as an argument when discussing open source in a general audience.

I don't think the general move over to free-er software and less silos is supported by this kind of more outlandish zealotism.

It sounds like they are going to be ripping out a few components from their operating system too. Strange.
