    The Go programming language

    the real problem with GitHub is the awful issue pages. For example look at this:

    https://github.com/golang/go/issues/21498

    they put this randomly in the middle of the page:

    > 456 hidden items

    > Load more

    you click it, then you get this:

    > 396 hidden items

    > Load more

    seriously, what the fuck is this? how is this better than pagination at all? with pagination, I can see the first page, and if I want to also see the last page (which this awful UI seems to be trying to do) I JUST CLICK THE LINK TO THE LAST PAGE. what is so awful about pagination that we have ended up with this horrible excuse for a forum?

  • git-bug

    Distributed, offline-first bug tracker embedded in git, with bridges

    Neither do the issues support. But there is git-bug [0].

  • SQLite

    Unofficial git mirror of SQLite sources (see link for build instructions) (by mackyle)

    I could set up a redirect to the '/raw/' pages but then the syntax highlighting is gone.

    The same page is perfectly viewable over plain html on gothub[2] though.

    Github also seems to be hiding their "Assets" (binaries et al) on the "/releases" page for some projects behind javascript(especially older versions).[3] Something else that wasn't the case about ~1.5 years ago.

    Would be great if gothub could unshackle the links to those as well[4], but that appears to not be working at the moment[5] .

    This project appears to be a more performant(measurably so), more privacy friendly(as Microsoft won't have a record of your interest in certain projects) alternative front-end for "non logged in" github users.

    I like it, but it still needs work.
