    Let's be real: Microsoft isn't buying Github to steal your startup's proprietary source code nor are they going to shutter all of the Linux foundation projects on there. They're buying Github to improve Visual Studio Team Services and get access to a broader ecosystem of devs.https://twitter.com/kellabyte/status/1003660575690244096 …

    Woke up to 300 replies from grumpy devs about GitHub. Guys this is 2018. Microsoft has one of the kindest, most inclusive CEO’s out there. You demanded they changed. They have. You demanded they embrace open source. They have. Now it’s your turn to change and forgive.

        Same reason they developed VS Code; same reason they decoupled .NET from Windows; same reason they bought Xamarin; same reason they contribute to the Linux kernel; same reason they hire K8s developers to work on Azure; and the list goes on

        The entire play here is to help decouple Microsoft from Windows and build a broader range of developer tools and services that support developers of all runtimes and platforms. Github is a great gateway to introduce these tools and services to developers.

        This isn't 2001 Microsoft anymore; this is Satya, "big tent" Microsoft. Yeah, you might see some prompts on Github in the future asking if you want to try Visual Studio Team Services and I'm sure setting that up will take all of four seconds.

        And if you don't want to use it, you won't have to and nothing will be palpably different otherwise. The end. No drama.

        Intellicode integration could be cool

        Dude, I LOVE that idea... Way better than symbol packages - although I think there's a third party project out there that can already do some of that inside Visual Studio

        exactly. MS doesn't care about stealing the code of a small startup. They'll just pay for it if they really want it.

        Yeah, exactly - their M&A department just dropped $7+B on Github and $38B on LinkedIn last year. Dropping ~1m on a valuable startup here and there is a rounding error for them.
