[QUOTE="CosmoPeak, post: 435291, member: 68352"] I'm optimistic. I don't think they'll mess much with the experience for open source/small projects/individuals. I imagine they'll make changes to the enterprise side of it. Microsoft has changed their stance massively over the last few years for the better. I can't imagine they would buy GitHub for $7.5b just to butcher it. They haven't butchered LinkedIn and Visual Studio Code is a very good piece of open source software, just to name a couple of examples. People leaving/bashing GitHub/Microsoft imo is a bit of an overreaction. Git is decentralised at heart. If it does go to shit, worst case, you can just move your repository elsewhere. [/QUOTE]
