GitHub is not a long term place to store open source code

I don’t think code storage is the problem. 

The knowledge of the code base gets embedded in the issue interface and other stuff surrounding the git repo which is difficult to get out

I agree code storage is the minor part of it hopefully solutions like https://radicle.xyz become more popular
