WXLCKNO 2 years ago Wow.For all the usernames I've ever tried getting (and failed cause they don't give out inactive usernames on most platforms), that's amazing. gunalx 2 years ago In my opinion pretty terrible that github nilly willy can decide your org was inactive for too long and give it a new owner. (tbf i dont really know for how long and how inactive but still, this is potentially a security vulnerability with github) 1 reply → helsinki 2 years ago Can you share the e-mail?
