It's not like anything about github is open source. Maybe that will change.

well, there was the atom editor. which now i fully expect msft to kill in favor of vs code. damn it.

VsCode is open source too: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode

i vastly prefer atom - open source or not.

How would they kill it? It's open source.

They can't really "kill" it as in destroy it, but the biggest contributors to that project were all GitHub staff. MS will most definitely redirect any staff efforts to VSCode instead.
