What is this github.io
Is it different from github.com? 🤔

#AskFedi

@strawberryfieldsforever Sorta, its just the domain used to host github pages . If you have a repo with a pages branch the page will be hosted at user.github.io/project

As far as I know they dont use the *.io domain for anything else.

@strawberryfieldsforever infact gitlab and thus QOTO's gitlal follows the same pattern with qoto.io :)

@strawberryfieldsforever well the pages the various repos create are static pages only, so trackers and cookies wouldnt really make much sense.
