Ghostty Developer Loses Confidence in GitHub's Reliability
Mitchell Hashimoto says GitHub’s outages and workflow failures have made the platform unsuitable for Ghostty’s active development.

Ghostty, a modern GPU-accelerated terminal emulator developed by Mitchell Hashimoto, is transitioning its active development away from GitHub due to ongoing reliability issues that have disrupted daily workflows.
Hashimoto announced the decision in an emotional post titled “Ghostty Is Leaving GitHub,” stating that the project will gradually eliminate its dependency on GitHub while maintaining the current repository as a read-only mirror. Further details about the new hosting platform will be provided in the coming months, as discussions continue with both commercial and open-source providers.
