I just don't believe that they really want to take over GitHub. Why could current owners even think that it's good idea (except $$$)?

@harshit because github does not make profit and yes, because 7.5 billion is a shit load of money.

It's actually a big part of their business model.
Embrace open source.
Extend it to add new features.
Make your version so good that all other free versions are extinguished.

@hitchhiker42 but they usually extinguish their own version which was acquired from and built by hard working non-Microsofters 🤔
