How on earth are any of the Nix foundations project "dependent" on GitHub? I mean they even have their own independent build system?

  There's this whole concept of "Embrace, Extend Extinguish", that a lot of people in the open source community hasn't forgotten about, and therefore find it hard to trust anything that Microsoft is about.

        I mean it never really took off an VS Code is a great replacement. It's not clear if Atom would've gone anywhere even if MS didn't buy Github.

        I think atom was going down before Microsoft bought GitHub ?
