Nothing personal against russian FOSS developers. They should be blocked (sanctioned) from contributing until the sanctions are stopped.

If some country will sanction US that is hosting FOSS, absolutely. That’s not mutually exclusive with this.

Do you believe US civilians should be prohibited from interacting with the rest of the world?

Yes…? Why haven’t other countries sanctioned the US for Gaza genocide? But that’s also not the point at hand.

I have nothing against Russian developers. But I do think they should be completely isolated and blocked from the outside world. That’s the whole point of sanctions.

This post is stupid. The whole reason they are blocked is because Russia invaded ukraine, so the US sanctioned them, so Russian developers can’t use Github, not because “microsoft bad” (true but irrelevant in this case) but because Microsoft is legally obligated to block them.

Fuck russia. Honestly this post makes Microsoft, Github and USA look good, and Organic Maps look bad. Organic maps should ban russian developers from contributing.

Honestly after this post I will avoid Organic maps. More like genocide-complicit maps amirite.

Gitlab was created by a Ukrainian, and Microsoft is blocking Organic maps Russian developer due to sanctions due to war on ukraine, which is why what you’re suggesting is pretty cursed
