One of the most annoying aspects of the ongoing corporate capture of our network is that protocol-related discussions increasingly happen on Github instead of Fediverse (or friendly platforms like SocialHub and Codeberg).

Today's example: https://github.com/swicg/groups

Why use Github to talk about federated groups when we have federated groups right here in Fediverse? That makes no sense. But some self-appointed "leads" decided to create a repo anyway.

Similar Github repos ("task forces") also exist for other protocol features. I don't see any reason to legitimize this by participating and hope that other developers will do the same.
