Heh, nothing personnel kid

only thing github is useful for is shit fucking programmers that work for companies to solve problems they are too inept to solve.

stop giving your code away for free unless you're already comfy. you think you're doing something altruistic and good, but microsoft and google pajeets and chinks come along and just swipe it for the latest release of X for $299.99

I know you're just trolling, but at least put some effort into it.

Remember, this is the company that had 10% marketshare with their smartphone OS in Europe due to standardization of hardware and it being smack dab between Android's fragmented and laggy bullcrap and Apple's thorny garden, while being completely obscure in America, yet decided to release all new features in America and then constantly give consumers mixed messages to confuse them, made the OS more like Android and added fragmentation, reduced base requirements for phone hardware and gave us a fuckton of lag, then killed it off.
Instead of, you know, using this fucking money machine.

use self hosted cgit

it makes me feel good when people use my code though

>GitHub lost $66M in nine months of 2016

Why would MS buy this shit

No matter who loses, we win.

What's the point in writing proprietary software then, it'll just get pirated anyway.

invalid comparison
proprietary software is binary only which can easily exploit you regardless if you pay for it or not
gpl'd stuff on github is usually source only and the exploit is at the contributor/s expense not the user

How

Business licenses.

I'll throw this in here because I just know it will rustle some jimmies: BING. Yes, really. Bing is a major success and highly profitable. Yes, really. I realize this raises the obvious question: Who the hell uses Bing? Who knows, I don't, their numbers in terms of both users and revenue shocked me as much as the next guy.

It's not really a huge amount these days but yeah, Microsoft does make some money off Android from patent trolling. They reported something like two billion a year from patent licensing back in 2014.

bing is great for porn

I use a couple of gitlab instances, one of which I set up myself, but I don't think I'd ever use gitlab.com, because their sysadmins are inept.
I guess I should consider moving all repos I had on github to some gitlab instance, it's a shame that repo mirroring is behind a paywall.

You claimed Linux is not on github and you got proven wrong.

Linux development, leaf copy of the source

yes, you're technically right but you're looking at it upside down. The kernel development happens on git.kernel.org/ and that's what matters. Nobody would care or notice if some mirror of it like github went down - it just doesn't matter.

Which kernel?

Someone is gotta buy Github.

Also it makes sense for microshit to want to buy them. They are trying to make sure every fucking developer on earth uses their tech:

>They give you like 1000 usd on free credits for Azure if you are a hobby developer student.

>They even gave us Linux for Windows 10.

All of that is vanity until they release the source code to their main product.

Is there anything inherent about GitHub that devs tend to use it? Like Facebook for social media?

>Is there anything inherent about GitHub that devs tend to use it? Like Facebook for social media?
It's just well known, and lots of projects that you might want to contribute to are hosted there. If you're looking for a job, I'd assume not having a github account would put you at an disadvantage.

I assume it's more popular, so your projects get more attention and 'stars'.
Which is important for resume padding.

So they'll own both of these?

I'm okay with this

given the fact that they have invested some of their time and resources last couple of years into open source movement, i'd say yes.

Can always find more git hosting, but I'm guessing this will outright kill competing products that Github puts out like Atom.

WTF? why did GNU allow this to happen?

I actually like github and use it but still, this shit dont make any fucking sense

Ugh, cringe.

on the one hand, GitHub is largely responsible for the rise of the SJW in this field - on the other hand it has been quite a useful tool. I don't think I'd be sad if Microsoft destroyed it as is the most likely outcome.

How the fuck is github worth billions?

You are aware that Micrsoft is a Platinum™ Member® of the Linux Foundation, yes?

haha

Perhaps because they "own" all of the FOSS projects and therefore can control what is allowed and what isn't from the community. Not to mention the large companies that purchase packages for private projects and individuals that want private projects. In the end they have more control than they should in the FOSS movement.

I actually think that microsoft would improve github just as they made atom look like garbage when vscode came out.

When it comes to language development and making devs feel comfy, they do a good job.

Windows sucks though.

Microsoft will kill it just like they do to everything else.

>All major projects are moving to Gitlab, from Gnome to Mkvtoolnix.
From what i see, only projects which weren't using Github moved to Gitlab. Those were using Github remained unchanged. Like freedesktop are migrating from cgit to Gitlab.
I guess it's because they want to use free software as Github is proprietary.

Jow Forums uses gitgud
Radical FOSS advocates use gitlab
SJW and normies use github

While I've always been resentful against Microsoft for their closed approach in the past, I must say I wouldn't be against MS buying Github. I would foresee some improvements, especially making git more normie so companies are eased into it (especially to replace most of what Atlassian offer in their pro Bitbucket and cie) and make it even more reliable in terms of infrastructure.

There's always GitLab if all else fails, and since Gnome has begun moving to it if there's no major trouble I think it'd be a great thing to happen. I'm surprised at myself saying this, but if they can contribute a bit more to free software in the tools area, I'd be happy.

But Gitgud is just Gitlab free hosting, so technically it's still Gitlab.

>All of that is vanity until they shoot themselves by releasing the source code of their main product

Good. Github needs to die.

And you have to pay for automated testing last I saw, while GitLab offers it with its hosting.

Isn't github open source?
Why not just fork the entire website, change the color and launch Mhub instead of spending 2 billion dollars?

>Isn't github open source?
No, it isn't

i'm actually ok with this.

Interesting, did the RMStards finally understand that FOSS isn't always good?

All projects that actually take FOSS seriously aren't host their code on Github though. They either self-host cgit or GitLab

They're buying the users. That's why all these technology acquisitions are huge, they're not buying the technology, they could whip that up themselves in a few weeks, they're buying the users.
