Even bitcoin is in github
That is trusted service imo
 Used by millions all over the world...

So was the Samourai wallet and tornado cash and they all suddenly vanished from github.
I could give more examples but I think this two is enough because they are related with privacy services.

I am not speaking empty words and I really don't care what millions of people are using because they are usually wrong.

I believe you're right with your point but it's still good to have some back up on a site like Github as many good services now own Github pages and majority of people visit that site and in their mind they consider it safe and trustworthy. I know we shouldn't care about the opinion of even millions because sometimes so many people can be wrong or they might be the ones who don't understand things deeply.

But those companies had very serious legal problems. Github were forced by authorities to take action.
I doubt BitList.co will have such problems.. This is a list of mixers.

Well, I guess it's really hard to come to a conclusion on this, and the reason for this is because Bitlist as I believe many of us already know is not a mixer, but only a platform where such services are listed, compared and rated.

On one hand, we can say that even if mixers are having issues with the authorities, Bitlist will be exempted because it's not a mixer but more like a rating platform for different types of services which mixers are one of those.

But on the other hand, it's possible that authorities may see Bitlist as helping promote mixers, at all they decided to come for all the mixers around.

But then again, I believe this is nothing to worry ourselves about, icopress definitely have a  backup of the Bitlist github data just incase we wake up one morning and the data is no longer there on github.

I don't follow crypto lawsuits because I'm not a lawyer and can't understand all the allegations and evidence, but I don't think we should expect GitHub to be a fully decentralized platform for all user content, or a guarantee of absolute security.

Open source on GitHub means everyone can inspect the project code, find issues, or contribute to its development. If that project encounters legal problems and has to shut down, someone can easily create a similar or better project by inheriting its source code.

It's not a big deal if Github takes it down, IMO. It's great to spread the word and get some SEO boosting, but the real data is on the website (). In the meanwhile, seems like they just take down stuff that get too famous (i.e when Tornado Cash was laundering money from north korean hackers).

Sure, I never said that github should not be used, but that another alternative should be there as a backup.
Self-hosting git is probably the best option but I see many projects are using gitlab.

TornadoCash was not a company, and all mixers have issues, so I don't understand what you are trying to say...

This is how they operate, when lot of people start using any service

Going after services that become too popular is a well known tactics of the government, and centralized services that are possibly as well, afraid of the government coming after them, just the same reason why Theymos decided to ban mixers the other forum, as a way to prevent the forum from ever falling into the hands of the government to been seen a place or medium through which such services are promoted.

Microsoft, like I learnt owns Github, possibly may likely not want to have any issue with the government they are already loyal to, and for this reason, they won't hesitate to shut down any decentralized and privacy related services listed on their platform and getting very popular in a way the service could attract the attention of the government.

Since you are here, and as far as I know you are part of the development of https://bitlist.co/ Is there a possibility for a small correction? Since there are several categories on the site, is it possible to create a specific URL for each of them?
For example, https://bitlist.co/casinos lead to the casino's tab on the site or the link https://bitlist.co/debitcards will open the Debit Cards tab and so on...
Currently, the default is the mixers tab, and if someone shares a link in the discussion about exchanges, the first thing you get is a list of mixers.
It may not be the primary thing, but it would certainly improve the usefulness of the site plus a certain SEO aspect.

During the 2017 ICO craze, I remember hearing about several projects aiming to be the "GitHub on blockchain", but most of them failed, and their tokens are now virtually untradeable. Nowadays, developers have a range of options like GitHub, GitLab, GitKraken, Bitbucket, Codegiant, Azure DevOps, AWS CodeCommit, and Gitea.

While many developers still rely on GitHub as their primary tool, there's a growing trend of backing up code on multiple platforms to mitigate potential risks associated with GitHub. For mixers projects, GitHub is primarily used to publish source code and receive community feedback, it's not their sole server. Even if GitHub faced issues, mixers could continue operating and their #DevelopmentTeam s could adapt their platforms to meet evolving user needs.

Yes, that's a very useful suggestion, I believe that's the best one could do. Github should be used along with an alternative to be on safe side. Since we're talking about Bitlist.co, and it has its own personal domain name with hosted pages, and Github is used as a backup, and it would be better to have one more back at site like Gitlab if time allows.

I see Stealthex exchange is listed on BitList website?
Did their CEO or owner by any chance contacted BitList support and asked for removal from listing yet?

Since you are here, and as far as I know you are part of the development of https://bitlist.co/ Is there a possibility for a small correction? Since there are several categories on the site, is it possible to create a specific URL for each of them?

I would even go step further and create separate pages for each active service.
This could be used for posting more information about each service with all links, social media, rating, etc.

Great idea!

Clicking each tab will now go to its respective URL, just like visiting the URL will go to its respective tab.

Example:
https://bitlist.co/services
https://bitlist.co/debit-cards

wau, this was a very quick reaction, well done.
Now it seems much better and more friendly to share it on other places

Your idea and suggestion was indeed a very good one, I don't know if TryNinja is the one in charge of improving the site, the speed at which the suggestion was implemented is commendable and kudos to who ever is responsible.

Sharing a particular part or section of the site has become more easier indeed.

I was even going to ask how does a service (like an exchange, mixer, debit cards, etc) get listed on bitlist? Is there any form an interested party gets to fill like it's done with coinmarketcap, or does the management of bitlist find and list services they like and find worthy?
