Re: GitLab mirror considered harmful

[Christopher Davis <brainblasted disroot org>]

In some cases, the mirror shows up before our hosting in search engines like Google and DuckDuckGo.

I've been frustrated by that before.

Maybe opening an issue in GitLab that points to the original PR so that the maintainer can persuade the original PR author? Is this something maintainers would find acceptable?

Hi, apart of duplicated space and work, that won't work for those whom do not have an account on GitHub. Why would not contributors accept the fact that GNOME hosts its sources, bug tracker, ... in its own infrastructure? Do you think contributors won't find the sources and so on, when they are only under gnome.org umbrella? If I'd need to contribute to some project, I simply accept code-of-conduct and the way the project does those things, instead of trying to work on some mirror (where different rules can apply).
