Getting blocked by GitHub could be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on why it happened. Looking at the conversation over here, I don't see them saying anything about those reasons. Maybe MastoSoc shows a more complete conversation.

The claim is made that someone on the team visited Crimea since the Russian invasion of 2014, with the implication that someone on the Organic Maps team supports the invaders. Strangely, the person making the claim seems to say they don't care about the borders. That doesn't make sense.

Anyway, I don't know anything about OMaps, but I'm glad when any project moves its main development infrastructure off of centralized services. Normally, I'm in favor of leaving a residual mirror repo on GitHub / GitLab or similar hubs, but if they're unable to push commits there, that's useless.
