> GitHub was purchased, which is a bit different.

Why is that different? The purchase was 7 years ago (?) at this point.

Do we make an exemption for SharePoint because it, too, is an extension of FrontPage acquired via Vermeer?[0]

At what point does it lose its exemption from "Hate All Things Microsoft"? 10 years? 20 years?

The difference here is that we didn't select to use a Microsoft product, a produce we used became Microsoft.

It only matters in the context of it being "ironic" that it is used and favored in the coding community.

OK, then thoughts on VS Code and TypeScript?

Microsoft contributions to Python?

Do they all trigger some weird instant irrational reaction?

Depends. Is everything open source (TypeScript)? Or does it give me basically everything for free when building open source (Github)?

Github looks and works mostly indistinguishable from how it was 7 years ago.

So you are of the belief that Microsoft has not had any effect on GitHub over the last 7 years? Interesting.

Uh? That's not the case at all. It even has popup ads for copilot now.
