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?

    1. Codeberg allows you to make private repos.
    2. They don’t like being used as external storage, as this is not what they’re providing this service for to the community. I think the same applies to GitHub and Gitlab, that using them as a external storage is not very ethical and may violate the ToS.
    3. A personal Forgejo instance for duch purposes would be a good idea.
