if you're responsible for a FOSS project, it's now time to consider how you can run your project without relying on the US.
like, using GitHub is fine. Continue using it - I do, too, and there's a lot of value of having projects centralized in one place.
but you need to make sure you have a contingency plan. is your repo with all branches and metadata backed up somewhere else? do you own your project's website, discussion forums, or something else that allows you to point your users and contributors to a new place if you need to?
can you continue work on your project if US-big-tech decides your very existence is no longer allowed?
now is the time to take inventory and build backups.
