That’s totally fine if your work is something you’re comfortable putting in the public domain.
But Dihya isn’t a weekend hobby project – it’s 1,000+ hours of AI/Big Data engineering built on a paid Business platform.
When a company fails to protect that work and then launches a product with a very similar promise, asking for accountability isn’t about greed – it’s about basic professional standards.
I’ve been building Dihya, an AI-driven No-Code platform to:
Turn natural language (even spoken) into full-stack apps in minutes
Process Big Data (4.7M+ files scanned in 134s)
Build AI pipelines for analytics, not just CRUD apps
I trusted GitHub Codespaces (Enterprise + Copilot Business) to develop it.
What happened?
Codespaces crashed twice in a short period
Recovery Mode locked my entire project – I still can’t commit or export
Support tickets delayed 4 days, then some disappeared
Lost 1,000+ hours of work
Weeks later, GitHub Spark launches:
Natural language → full-stack apps, minutes to deployment
Sounds almost exactly like Dihya’s core vision.
The Questions: Do we, as devs, have any guarantee that our code/ideas in Codespaces aren’t used internally?
Anyone else faced major Codespaces data loss or suspicious timing?
Which platforms are actually safe for AI/Big Data innovation?
Considering legal action under EU/BGB IP law, but first: I’d like to hear the community’s thoughts.
Because if platforms can fail to protect your work AND later ship a product suspiciously close to it… how do independent innovators survive?

I just stopped by here to point out your domain is still parked, like you just bought it.

With Public Domain, I don't waste time and money on trying to use the State to sue over licenses and stuff.
