"I'll just use github. It's not like I'm supporting Microsoft by using it." -> "I'll just use VS Code" -> (It's okay it's open source) -> "Wow Visual Studio looks good too" -> "I'll just use Windows" -> "Wow look how easy it is to use Azure with Visual Studio" -> "What's Linux?"

It is not a completely outlandish flow, but what does github have to do with it?
github makes you think Microsoft is the good guys. Strategic play by Pajeet Nutella to convert freetards

>>4 Microsoft is leveraging free open-source developers to maintain and improve their legacy codebases, as their participiation synergizes with hired developers and promotes a culture of low-cost coding.

>>5 There is some truth to this. CLR was on the verge of dying before Mono/.NET Core got the attention of the Linux community.
I wonder if Windows OS will become "open source" the same way Chromium is open source where no one without a compute cluster and API keys would be able to actually compile it.

>>6 No. Microsoft will just release some components and programmers will work for them for free, they will keep all copyrights and shit. https://github.com/Microsoft
Their whole "we love open source" bullshit is a distraction.
They're not releasing source code because of "community" or whatever other crap they can think up, it's because it has no real value to them anymore. They've turned from selling software into spying and selling data like Google.
Anyone who thinks the former is better than the latter is either a "modern MS" shill or a braindamaged retard. No sane person wants this "modern" UWP idiocy. Since those dipshits are constantly parroting "we want to focus on improvements to this repo", I dare someone to make a PR that just replaces the entire contents with the source of the old calc.exe above. Bonus points for using your real GitHub account or identity.

>>17 You should see a psychologist to work through your deep-seated obsession with early 2000s Windows programming. This is not healthy behavior.
