If anything I'd prefer Microsoft to acquire Github than say...Google.
Microsoft is not a perfect company but it's not the 2000s anymore and I'm a bit annoyed by the usual "Microsoft: Bad™" takes. Especially when other comp like Google/FB are actually doing harmful things in present days 🤷
I'll take "Has a shitty policy over Windows' copyright but largely contributes to open-source" over "has a hip image but builds military AI" thank you.
BUT: of course the whole thing is a bit worrying re: centralization and depending on how Microsoft handles the acquisition, it might kill GitHub because Microsoft isn't notoriously good at keeping acquisitions in a good state.
@Eramdam look at what happened to Yammer. they were adding lots of good features. Got bought by Microsoft. all the plans came to a standstill. A year later, got folded into office. Really a shame.
