Not my blog, but the author’s experience reminded me of my own frustrations with Microsoft GitHub.
I kinda got bored halfway through. From what I gather they’re salty that GitHub is switching to react? If that’s the issue then the headline is rather misleading isn’t it?
Surely legacy software is one that drifts into obscurity through lack of investment which is the polar opposite of GitHub rewriting their entire front end…
My one complaint: Search code in a repo, and then there is no link to return to the repo home. Back, back, back, back…
There are quite a few things I don’t like about GitHub, but calling it legacy makes no sense.
I’ve got to say, seeing this:
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/network
instead of something like this:
https://fork.dev/blog/posts/collapsible-graph/
or this:

feels pretty damn legacy to me.
I am about to make you very happy.

Edge does that shit too with JSON… It made me switch to Firefox, so good for me (other than that Firefox has a tendency to enshittify too, but in different ways).
Quit with this Firefox “enshittification” bs. It isn’t true. Be better.

Wasn’t talking about that, but OK Boomer.
You’re about 30 years off, but nice try.
You absolutely were talking about that. Maybe not as your main point, but it was part of your statement.
