Github Projects on Trisquel netinstaller
Trisquel is a "Fully free" GNU/Linux distribution, which ought to be Github-free as well.
Software freedom has not moved past the simple licensing requirement, with regards to projects designed to create lock-in and push users around; instead it is argued that the license makes that impossible when it only makes it much more difficult.
Regardless, Trisquel incorporates a number of software components which are controlled by Microsoft. Leave it to someone to point out that thanks to firmware also created to aid lock-in, that GNU/Linux was already incorporating software components "controlled" by Microsoft due to things like UEFI, as if that proves it isn't a problem.
Red: On Github
Gold: Needs something from Github
Yellow (lighter): Python or Perl-related-- might not need Github if working suitably with PyPy
-----
Green: Self-hosted
Lighter Green: GNU or NonGNU (Savannah)
-----
Grape: Gitlab
Cyan: Sourceforge
Grey: Java
-----
Blue: Undetermined/Other
Needs Github: This is just an installer that gets what it needs from the network, but it includes /var/lib/dpkg/info and dpkg uses Perl (Github) so it's coloured lighter yellow. It should probably be gold, but lighter yellow is close enough for this graphic. Per the scheme used on the other map, Gold is worse.
May Need Github: wpa_supplicant uses Python, but it's not included. It might work with PyPy anyway.
-----
On Github: systemd, including udev shown here
On Github: brltty
On Github: zlib, shown here (libz)
On Github: libnl
On Github: blkid, from util-linux-- this is the worst one; we've been waiting for Linux kernel development to fall to Microsoft, maybe this means it's not too early to say it has now
-----
On Gitlab: this stuff is from the Internet Systems Consortium-- although they dumped bind10 on Github while bind9 is on Gitlab, they actually migrated their active projects from Github TO Gitlab. Bind10 was abandoned due to budget issues.
Self-hosted: nearly everything, except what's mentioned. Those are all kernel modules on the left. Some of them could be based on Github, though this page and squashfs are perhaps the first examples we know of where Github encroaches on kernel development.
