    VisualStudio: @IDeleteSystem64 Understood. Let's try something different. Go to 'Tools > Options > Accounts' and set the 'System Web Browser' option under 'Sign-in options'. Restart VS and login with your GitHub account again. Keep us posted.

  • fishsander Sander (@fishsander) reported

    Installed the GitHub iOS app Now I can also work when I’m not working

  • christophmoar Christoph Moar (@christophmoar) reported

    @qrs @databasescaling I absolutely know that, and it's frustrating. The issue is, these pages "starve". There's things that can be done to help a bit, I wrote them in the first tweet. Unfortunately, GitHub is not doing it's part to help the crawler. And third party links would help the discoverer.

  • Dubalove87 Josh W. Barnes (@Dubalove87) reported

    @papacthulu GitHub banned me is there a way I can fix that?

  • jaroslawjarosik Jarosław Jarosik (@jaroslawjarosik) reported

    @github we need a popup like this before someone closes issue without reading even the title, like for example @MarshallOfSound of @electronjs

  • nutjob4life Sean Kelly (@nutjob4life) reported

    Got a tech survey asking where I store container images and "Docker Hub" wasn't even one of the options 🧐 (GitHub Packages wasn't an option either—but then again, GitHub Packages is terrible for open source container image hosting.)

  • ziendy_aksara Ziendy Aksara Pandita (@ziendy_aksara) reported

    @Swing17540 @TheGlitchFather If you've been with Glitch Protocol for a long time, you know that Github will be published in the future for private reasons

  • asegunlolu David Okeyode MVP #EndSARS (@asegunlolu) reported

    @DaraOladapo @github Fix it @github

  • steventey Steven Tey 👨🏻‍💻 (@steventey) reported

    @mikedwattier @stephenweber ...begrudgingly proceeds to open up a Github issue/ask a question on Stackoverflow and wait forever for a response. Man this hit me right in the feels 😩

  • HEPfeickert Matthew Feickert (@HEPfeickert) reported from Urbana, Illinois

    @HenrySchreiner3 @github That does indeed mostly work. There’s some further problems with the setup, but that seems to be from some conflict with the mounts that I’ll have to figure out. Thanks!

  • kevcodez Kevin (@kevcodez) reported

    @dansult IMO the pull request review process is easier in Gitlab. Github conversations always get lost for me. Not an issue in Gitlab

  • SeanTAllen ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (@SeanTAllen) reported

    It would be really nice in GitHub issues if you could mark important comments so by default only those show. Like when you have a long discussion and then a summary or two comment at the end. To be able by default to keep all context but only show"final comments" would be great.

  • Nick_Craver Nick Craver (@Nick_Craver) reported

    @Scott_Helme @estark37 You're bringing in another layer of assumptions that the URL I'm at has been compromised to send somewhere else. That's a step away from all of this. The game's over for most users at that point. If one GitHub form submitted to another org, that's a whole other server issue.

  • bwremastered BonziWORLD Revived Graveyard (@bwremastered) reported

    It's just a minor fix to the github repository, and an usual failed attempt.

  • larsmb Lars Marowsky-Brée (@larsmb) reported

    @xahteiwi In our case, Travis isn't even triggering the build. It just stopped working a few days ago, coinciding with maintenance regarding the GitHub APIs. The Travis CI status now reports all green again, but it's still not working, and the error message is useless.

  • Nick_Craver Nick Craver (@Nick_Craver) reported

    @estark37 @Scott_Helme I know which endpoint I'm submitting to, and where I'm posting to. And it's not just credentials, this could be for example an issue about a secret product which is fine in our private GitHub org, but a firable offense in our public one. Think any information at all.

  • EpicChambers Michael Chambers (@EpicChambers) reported

    @gpakosz I think the Github eco system for tickets and issues is getting pretty good these days but I'm not sure it could replace the Atlassian stack

  • MagickNET 🧙‍♂️Dirk Lemstra (@MagickNET) reported

    Bit surprised that @GitHub supports ZIP in issues and discussions but not 7-Zip?

  • jaroslawjarosik Jarosław Jarosik (@jaroslawjarosik) reported

    @0x606 @github idiot in your organization was unable to read even the title of the issue and decided to close it and nobody was interested in resolving that

  • esotericmeans Erik Kristensen (@esotericmeans) reported

    Anyone else seeing @github actions not working for pull requests that were already open? New ones seem to work, new commits to existing, nothing is happening.

  • christophmoar Christoph Moar (@christophmoar) reported

    @databasescaling @qrs Hmmm. Think twice. The problem is the limited resources available for discovering, crawling and indexing remote pages. These three processes concur for source (github) and target (search engine) resources. Once you have 123m unique URLs of a given domain, you cannot expect

  • Ryuusei_Aika 🌠 (@Ryuusei_Aika) reported

    im setting emotes for my server and i missclicked and ******* set make a github post to my desktop background im so MAD rn

  • MagickNET 🧙‍♂️Dirk Lemstra (@MagickNET) reported

    And here we go again... The macOS build of MagickNative on @GitHub is broken again. I really hope that at some point macOS will have containers so I can get a reproducible build.

  • Mallonbacka Matthew (@Mallonbacka) reported

    @dandoescontent This sounds like something I want to read more about. I wonder what the state of AT was back then. Current W3C standards seem to be discussed in GitHub issues - any idea where the discussion about this addition happened, and if it has been archived somewhere?

  • lsmith Lukas Kahwe Smith (he/him) (@lsmith) reported

    hmm .. so that is surprising. wanted to play with a @github integrated app that asks me for a personal access token with read/write access to be able to write labels in issues. but it seems like I cannot limit personal access tokens to a specific repo. :-/

  • _st0012 Stan Lo (@_st0012) reported

    @digitalocean @github is down

  • danielgross Daniel Gross (@danielgross) reported

    The systemic debilitation of Google search is now a real tax on software development. Much harder to debug because I don't find the right issue; need to search each site (like Github) directly.

  • MonstersGo MonstersGoBoom (@MonstersGo) reported

    @CommodoreBlog It's kind of expected but sad. my issue was them releasing a preview build from my github which wasn't released and technically disqualified that entry from the 4kb craptastic compo. the mods refused to help and were really rude about it.

  • justincormack Justin Cormack (@justincormack) reported

    Yesterday I discovered that Okta login in Chrome supports the Mac fingerprint reader for 2FA, today I discovered that GitHub 2FA does now, Chrome is just presenting this as a generic hardware 2FA device and prefers it when available. Hopefully will arrive in Firefox soon...

  • powen00hsiao 蕭博文 (@powen00hsiao) reported

    I think I found the problem,so I need to rename my GitHub user name and create a new repo
