@marcan @karl well, emacs is open source, so they should be able to add GitHub PR support to emacs themselves! 😉

@marcan @karl my universal response for "but it wouldn't work in emacs" is "well then, fix emacs yourself, it's Free Software, you know, you're a capable programmer" in much the same vein that they argue whenever anyone else has an issue with free software. Ugh.

@marcan @karl I use Emacs. There are GitHub, GitLab, Pagure, Phabricator, and Gerrit clients for Emacs. You don't *have* to suffer through email for just that.

@marcan @karl

I do GitLab patch reviews from vim, e-mail style... it annoys other devs sometimes but it's far better for everyone than e-mail 😅

@marcan I haven't checked, but I'm sure there are some plug-ins out there that make emacs work with github/gitlab and friends.

If the other "reasons" given are of the same kind, it sounds to me like a disingenuous excuse to not change a workflow they have gotten used to. I am not impressed.
