Try to look at it from a different angle. What's the best place where Microsoft could headhunt talents?  Wink

I have the feeling they will even improve GitHub and truly make it the Eldorado for devs.

Not sure if there is something similar to it but tbh I don't think github will die at least not for now.

Microsoft has been pretty friendly recently towards the open source and Linux communities.

I don't think them acquiring Github is a negative thing. If anything, it is a positive change for Microsoft and shows they are willing to work more with OS and *nix options.

If you are looking for an alternative, check out Gitlab.

Github was really a great place for open source software. Now nothing can be said so surely about the next planning of microsoft. But it is believed that some other platform will be developed soon for the open source softwaress.

Microsoft is one of the biggest tech giants in the world. So I believe that they will take some good initiatives to make the platform of github more useful and developers will be more free to contribute in this sector.

Github was previusly known to be one of the best places for open source coding. Now as MIcrosoft bought it, many users have doubts on their nextplan. As of now, there is no such website.

Talking about that, I'd like to mention that we are currently working on similar project based on EOS. Actually, it's an EOS infrastructure and Git based community driven market of code for different programming languages in one place. It will be better than Github. If anyone would like to know more, just send me a pm.

Microsoft has one of the most efficient operating systems for computers. Their OS is fast, and self-correcting. So, why wouldn't they be able to handle Github?

The questions are, who will leave Github because they are against MS? How long will it take MS to start tracking Github users in ways that they don't want to be tracked? Could Github actually be improved upon by MS? Will some of the Github programming be forced into a form of stereotyping like W-10 is, where people will not be able to adjust the programming as they want?

Cool

Guys do not panic! After reading this thread I went to my GitHub account and everything is as I left it. GitHub represents for me the best platform to create projects based on codes. While studying my coding courses last year I learned to use the platform I left for a moment because I am looking for opportunities in bitcointalk.

In that time I remember learning to code with totally free courses developed by Microsoft on the edX platform. I do not believe that the acquisition of GitHub by Microsoft is to subtract everything that has given to developers so far I think Microsoft is going to add to GitHub as they say: "Empowering Developers". Take a look at the following article from Microsoft's own source.

It was really unexpected to loss a platform like github. Though I am not sure about the plan of Microsoft. However let hope for the best and wait for a time to build a platform like github. Even github would develop more for the open source developer.

Did Skype die after it was purchased by Microsoft? Everybody was predicting it would, but it is quite all right, I think. The same for GitHub. Actually being a part of Microsoft might help it. Or not Smiley Future will tell.

Many of experts and professionals believe that buying GitHub will take Microsoft back to its roots, for Microsoft acquiring GitHub might be both a return to the company initial roots or/and can give shape turnaround where it was ten years ago.

Good question and tough to determine as its only day #1.
But anytime a major big player purchases another company, especially in tech, we tend to see greater performance.
Would be nice to have microsoft stock today.

Great question, it remains to be seen....

Nadella apparently has voiced numerous times that he has no intention of changing the developer-first characteristic of github. Will that hold true? We'll have to wait and see. Obviously a lot of people do not believe this and as you alluded to, another site will probably start seeing a growth in their community as a result of this business deal--one example being GitLab. One thing to note, however, is that before all of this MS was already one of the biggest contributors to github through many of their own programs, so there is a chance MS will not make drastic changes.

With Microsofts recent purchase of Github does anyone have an opinion of what this means for open source coding community and Devs.

I know alot ot people aren't happy with this.

Questions I have:

Is there another platform, I heard of bitbucket how is it?

Will someone just make another site?

Or

Will platforms like github have to go totally decentralized?
