Yeah but what they said is meaningless. Searching for <tool> source code is how you would search for tool’s source code. Not “where to find source code”

Is the code mirrored on GitHub?
If yes, you are right. It's a skill issue of web searching

If no, you are wrong. It's sort of like searching for a reddit community for lemmy by searching "AskLemmy lemmy.world".
(The goal is to highlight that AskReddit was essentially forked to AskLemmy and made it's own thing that is only on Lemmy)

You clearly haven’t read what I wrote. I wrote that the EU could have set up the repo on codeberg and a mirror on github for visibility. Instead they chose to host on github which is unjustifiable.
