Why are so many Linux projects on Microsoft GitHub? Shouldn't they all move to Codeberg? (lemmy.ml)

Sure, I know a lot of projects have been on GH since before MS bought it, but they've owned it for quite a while now, so we really should be seeing better migration out by now, no?

Codeberg is nonprofit which seems more in the spirit of the Linux ecosystem overall. GH is for-profit...

EDIT: All right, all right, I've gotten schooled. Thank you, O wise ones; I didn't realize how much Microsoft literally depends on Linux, among other things. I will proceed to shut up.

I moved my projects and yes I had to make new runners and pipelines for forgejo but it's pretty much feature parity

    Good for you, guess your setup is less complicated then.

    There's still plenty of stuff that is not a 1-to-1 drop in replacement, e.g. plenty use build previews from netlify, they have no drop-in for other providers so to get those you have to directly interact with the API instead, in a runner
