Yes, it’s definitely the former case, thankfully. Agreed that it’s strange, but it’s hard to put a technical reason behind it if I decide to push for hosting it somewhere better.

That probably is the case, but in my mind I’m also questioning if they’re backing it up regularly, what prevents someone from going in and deleting the files, etc.

That may be the case, but the original engineers have made other highly questionable decisions: the backend service was written in Java 8…just last year!

I can’t exactly put my finger on it, but something feels off. For example, on my first day, I wasn’t able to view the files in Windows Explorer (or clone the repo, actually), so the other dev just gave me a zip file of the repo. There’s something fishy going on, and I’m trying to figure it out.
