Zig quits GitHub, gripes about Microsoft's AI obsession

The Zig Software Foundation is migrating from GitHub to Codeberg, citing declining engineering quality and neglected critical bugs in GitHub Actions. A CPU-spinning bug in GitHub's safe_sleep script went unaddressed for years despite being reported multiple times, causing CI runners to hang indefinitely. Zig's president criticized Microsoft's AI focus as distracting from core platform maintenance, pointing to what he calls 'vibe-scheduling' where jobs run seemingly at random. The move reflects broader developer concerns about GitHub's priorities, with Codeberg doubling its membership since January as other projects also consider leaving.
