With #GitHub being acquired by #Microsoft, I don't see any logical reason for 1) immediately jumping ship, deleting repositories and accounts - GitHub was a proprietary walled garden since the beginning 2) bashing #GitLab for not being entirely open source or federated
@mooshoe from my point of view, GitHub was never neutral and using it as a central hub for FOSS development was always a mix of misunderstanding and compromise between usability and subjugation. And I don't write this lightly, I have repositories there, years of contributions (small, but they mean a lot for me).
@steko from my understanding of the argument, it isnt about github being proprietary or owned by microsoft, it's about github not being a neutral party anymore.
