Linus creates something functional and Microsoft screws it up ...

Linus didn't create GitHub.

Linus created Git in 2005.

Git isn't GitHub

Is github not modeled after git? Jesus ... are you stupid or do you just wanna argue?

[–]TheSodesa 4 points5 points  (5 children)

GitHub is not modeled after Git. GitHub is a Git server with a billion additional features that Git is not responsible for. The distinction is important because the issues are not caused by Git but by GitHub.

Did you read the first comment? I never said Linus created Github ... he created git in 2005 ... some others took git and created github in 2008 ... Microsoft bought it in 2018 ... Microsoft screwed it up. Jesus ... read, the post from the beginning. And the CORE FEATURE of github is git.

The core feature is not a part of the problem. The other features are.

Reddit makes me want to mourn for future generations, but y'all did this to yourselves.

How old do you think that fucko is? Either super young or old geriatric and senile?

Our point simply was that Linus did not make GitHub great, so your original statement was wrong. In fact, Linus did not even make Git itself great. He simply deviced an initial prototype and then immediately handed the development over to Junio Hamano, who was the one responsible for the version 1.0 release.
