Since Microsoft owns Github, Gitlab is Corp owned now since 2022, why are so many who preach privacy or using Linux, etc, still using a MS product?

Genuine questions. I'm assumming either familiarity & simplicity with GH or difficulty migrating elsewhere?

I'd say familiarity is it.

It sure isnt the uptime!

Inertia is a hell of a fundamental property of the universe.

I am moving to codeberg / forgejo... slowly... I'm gonna migrate everything one day I swear.
