All your OSS are belong to them...

Well... time to switch to gitlab

So maybe github will give in. How much is the offer?

@albi gitlab is better anyways

Glad my whole company switched to gitlab

@Devnergy anything between 2 to 5 billion

@Hu-bot0x58 more like let the salt flow

I am by no means a Microsoft fan, but cam someone explain why they think it's going to be so bad.

Microsoft's recent work on VSCode and Xamarin has been quite good.

well, freedom will now sleep with the fishes

@rusty-hacker haters gonna hate, they stack in 90s stereotypes, blame ms is cool /s... Than of course they forget that now ms changed, is the company with most open source repos on github, like vs code, they bought xamarin and included for free in vs, open sourced mono...

@hugh-mungus LOL I used to hate windows in 90s, BSOD too often, with XP became better and starting from 7 (including 8, 8.1 and 10) really good and stable... the only BSOD I got was for faulty hw/sw/drivers, but people keeps blaming windows for that. It's people like you instead that cannot understand that everything/everyone can change, on the other side in the past I used to like google, but they changed to evil, but people still stuck in the past, and they'll notice, will be too late

It won't be bad, don't worry.

The sheep mentality here is overly cringy. @rusty-hacker

I'm so happy I have a private gitlab on my NUC :P

@rusty-hacker @dontbeevil I actually think this will be fine. In my last role I did a fair amount of work with Azure and VSTS, and had really great interactions with the MS devs working through issues in their repos.

I posted this as a joke, but I think Microsoft is really a dev-focused company, not some evil corporation.

well..no. My FOSS is mine and my neighbour's. Not M$ alone's. The name on the GNU GPLv2 licence? Mine. The developer? Me. The copyright holder? I. Does Microsoft have any power over the laws like that? No.
