Can't really write something on the Linux foundation that'd annoy a platinum partner though, can you? :)
Though I'm in the middle on this, I'll see what microsoft does with github. The company has shown a different approach to the 'old microsoft' but it's still a company with the aim of making a profit. Github was losing money IIRC and MSFT has a lot of data on people as it is. Github might be a good way to target devs for advertisements :)
- Kipters 8y agoNat Friedman (future CEO of GitHub) has stated on his Reddit AMA that there will be not any advertisement on GitHub
- fred_is_fred 8y agoGithub's aim was also making money.
- jjuel 8y agoYeah Github wasn't a non-profit. It was a company that wanted to make money. They weren't giving everything they offered away for free. In fact the main reason I used Gitlab was for free private repositories. But no use arguing I guess since people will never change their mind no matter what Microsoft does.
- fred_is_fred 8y agoFree private teams were the reason I first used gitlab also, but I found that I liked their CI system too.
