I don't get what's the fuss about? I always thought "Trending" repositories is for code not for airing your opinion. Someone else can create a "IF_MS_BUYS_GITHUB_IMMA_IN" and probably have thousands of stars as well because the topic is itself binary in nature: you are either in or out. And then what? What would that prove? Is this some sort of popularity contest about who gets more stars? If your intention is to air your opinion, you have social networks for that. But this looks more like a misuse of the platform to me. Github is a company not a public service institution. They have their reasons for selling to Microsoft. You may agree or disagree with the decision and you have all the reasons to chose to stay or leave. Heck, you might even go for their competitors or create one yourself. But this is honestly just immature.
