Does their GitHub division make them profit overall?
- epolanski 4y agoI would be surprised if it doesn't, thousands of companies pay huge fees to GitHub and several new introductions such as Copilot (which I despise) and Codespaces are even bigger money makers. Moreover I think ultimately the GitHub play was to get more devs in the azure ecosystem too by providing first class integration between dev frontend (VSC), dev backend (WSL 2, devcontainers), corporate communication and calculus (Teams and Office365), GitHub, azure. The only thing they are really missing out still is a good chat and videocall application. Teams has good ideas and decent integrations, but it's goodness dies once you have to interact with the core of the application: video calls are mediocre and chat is plain terrible.
