Under the disguise of "better security" Micro$oft-owned GitHub has discriminated users of 1FA passwords while having commercial interest in success and wide adoption of FIDO 1FA specifications and Windows Hello implementation which it promotes as a replacement for passwords. It will result in dire consequencies and is competely inacceptable, read why.

Here is the list of alternatives and rationales to do it. If they delete the discussion, there are certain well-known places where you can get a copy of it. Read why you should also leave GitHub.


A tool helping managing alternatives: packages with compatible API doing the same thing, but having different IDs. The name is inspired with Debian alternatives. They may be different forks of one package, or completely independent packages having functions with the same API and doing the same things because it was an obvious solution.
