I bet a majority of critics here have a Github account and work actively on the platform. The good news is that we still have the freedom of choice, so, take a step back and resume the control of your code and data. At least think about it.

Pushing bureaucratic certification is a step back in history and paves the way towards corporate centralization & exploitation.

Look out for alternatives, you can live well without Github stars for prestige and I hope also without Github certificates for your career. After all, Git was made for decentralization, I do not want Microsoft to dictate the future well-being of (professional) developers.
