    If GitHub is supported in the Federation, would not that mean that most people there won’t just move?

    It is true that could allow other people to contribute to projects there though.

      ForgeFlux is scaffolding for native federation. I hope federation becomes popular and forges modify and adapt ForgeFlux for more robust federation capabilities(or implement native federation). But I have a feeling that we won’t see native/improved federation on GitHub very soon which will cause friction for GitHub users participating in federated ecosystem and hopefully motivate them to migrate.

      I hope projects on GitHub migrate to a libre forge, but that also won’t happen for a very long time. At least this way, non-GitHub users can participate in projects hosted on GitHub without depending on someone to represent them.
