I get that it’s open source provided you use codium not code but I still find that interesting

    Not hate in my case, but I don’t like ms and it’s because of the shit they have done in 90s and 2000s. Their current support of linux is not something I trust.

        My baby actually. Look, MS is a powerful company and they’re making a lot of desperate strategic purchases as their main business corrodes. Their brand is more based on gaming. Their infrastructure? The cloud and github. They’ve got the butter and they’re looking for bread to slap it across.

          Yeah, I have a deep seated fear for the future of GitHub in the long run. Seems too ripe for eventual enshitification.

            Well, this seems inevitable. But on the other hand, Github is really unique in the business and labor market too.

            1. Huge and important companies depend on it for hosting code.
            2. These same companies depend on open source projects.
            3. These same companies depend on programmers posting to their Github to share examples of their skills with the world, being potential employees.

            Now if you can enshittify Github in a way that doesn’t fuck with how important people use it too much, it will be after changes to how the tech hiring environment works - worldwide.
