Edit Bio And Fork The Repo To Spread The Word about if_ms_buys_github_imma_out

We could make a r/programming post about it

thought let's not use "refugee". Even though it feels like the right metaphor, there's no reason to be disregard actual refugees who feel it trivializes what they go though. Please read the comments in #26

can we stick to "evacuee"? it's been the title through most of this repos visibility and on twitter.

I edited the bio and forked this very repo to raise awareness. Taking the whole migration very gradually, but making it loud enough.

Hello,

The GitHub Evacuation Project has moved to GitLab (not an endorsement or even a final home). Your enthusiasm and contribution is still needed. Please check out the new project home, and read the project wiki for info to get restarted.

Thank you!

I love this idea. Let's talk more about it. But first, please read Issue 114.

@ferittunce @infinitetismal @moorchegue This is of course a great idea.

I believe a consistency of imagery and message has the best chance of catching fire, like the original repo did before we got buried from the trending list by Microsoft GitHub.

So if you guys would change your profile photo and add "github evacuee" to your profile and repos as I wrote under Help move the movement, we'll have a seed number of people who've done that, and then I'll start promoting it on Twitter, and it can catch fire.

We already have a few, and that's without me even sending out any message.
