It always starts small. The next step is, every time you commit code you get that then every time you commit code you have to disagree not using copilot.
So far you guys have complained about something I can’t replicate, and nobody actually tested except for me.
And then a feature which has no real impact on real developers, just people stealing code
Now you’re complaining about this. Seriously, it’s just nitpicking.
I didn’t hear anyone complain when Firefox added pocket support and VPN options into their config.
Again, really not a big deal at all… There’s a reason no real developers are complaining about this stuff…
Also why doesn’t it have any place here? It’s a service GitHub offers related directly to development. And it needed a big red square around it so anyone even knew what op was referring to.
Next thing we know you guys will be complaining that the submenu contains links to their other services like issues and such (someone actually complained about GitHub offering too many features last thread… And they got upvoted for it simply because they claimed Microsoft was using features to extinguish other services or whatever).
The first guy complaining in the first thread didn’t even have much source code commits on GitHub (and it seemed like it was a free account). But was making a huge deal about everything
If you’re genuinely upset, write about it on the front page of your repos. But, I suspect the people complaining barely use GitHub anyway honestly
Most developers don’t overreact about a service advertising it’s own services on a service, using non intrusive text which nobody would have noticed without a red square around it.
The hilarious thing is I could go to any open source project and put a dozen red squares.
The fact that no actual projects on GitHub are getting angry about this should suggest it’s an overreaction
People including myself tried this strategy for Linux before… It’s still not year of the Linux desktop
I didn’t hear anyone complain when Firefox added pocket support
People did. I did. Firefox’s Pocket integration is always the first thing I disable on a fresh install. You’ll always find people complaining about the tiniest things :-)
You’re possibly right… I don’t use pocket… But it doesn’t get in the way for me… But, firefox also has ads for their own VPN now too. But, I guess my point is, it really isn’t that intrusive.
It definitely isn’t intrusive in the way that Windows 11 hijacks your chrome tabs into Edge, and takes over on reboot (I hate apple, but I literally went out and bought a mac a week after tolerating that)
It’s like covid where we got told we’re all going to die from the vaccine and there will be super cancers or whatever.
Years later, and it hasn’t happened.
Firefox made Google their starting page decades ago. They profit from it, have things gotten worse? No… Better stop using Firefox and move to edge. But, based on your comment, they should have by now
This is literally a tiny non intrusive text just mentioning a service they offer. Everyone would be confused unless it didn’t have that red square
Are vendors no longer even allowed to link to their own services now? Because in another thread, Microsoft literally got accused of this because they offered things like issue tracking in GitHub. It’s apparently fine for other vendors to do this though.
May I recommend you complain about this on the front page of the github repos you own if you actually believe it’s a big deal?
Honestly, I feel like you guys are just nit picking now lol
That’s the least intrusive ad I’ve ever seen
It always starts small. The next step is, every time you commit code you get that then every time you commit code you have to disagree not using copilot.
It has to be stopped when it is small.
It has no place in a source code repository… It starts small and gets worse. Always.

You go accepting one small thing after another, and soon you will be locked into a crappy service.
Sure mate.

It might have even been there for months lol
