Friendly reminder: GitHub has lacked granular scopes since forever, people have complained about the issue since forever, and GitHub haven't implemented it still.

Microsoft also sucks, for more reasons than I can care to count, but this particular issue have been in GitHub since they started exposing their API. Now GitHub IS Microsoft, and it's both of their fault, I guess.

FWIW they are improving in other areas https://github.blog/2022-10-18-introducing-fine-grained-pers...

Also as annoying as they are very much one of the reasons why they're pushing for Github Apps.
