>It's fortunate that sometimes people refuse to build big tents and instead push for a better world.
In general I prefer if people keep their politics out of IT infrastructure. We don't all agree on what makes the world better and what makes it worse.
That said, I don't have a problem with this particular project. It's absolutely fine to create a git hosting solution specifically for open source as open source is itself a very big tent spanning a wide range of ideologies and groups that are otherwise hostile towards each other.
It is in fact commercial closed source software that is increasingly subject to political restrictions that are justified by supposedly making the world a better place.
