Summary: The past week’s media noise from Microsoft (distracting from mass layoffs in Bing and Edge) won’t last long enough to hide the fact that GitHub, still unable to make money, is firing workers; can developers trust this proprietary GPL-violating machine to keep hosting projects/code? Same problem with GitLab, but at least people can self-host.
