Buying github is just the sort of shitmove Microsoft would pull. Great way to kill it I guess

GitHub would be Nokia’d into irrelevance

@paul Maybe, but don’t think it’s given. They have for example done really well with Minecraft.

On the other hand, I bet lots of devs would be really uncomfortable with Microsoft hosting their source code.

@TorbjornLunde yeah definitely. I didn’t think of minecraft, more of Nokia, Skype, and their general “try to extract as much as possible” attitude

There’s no way GitHub would just continue as it is now imo
