The Case Against Microsoft and GitHub

> Don’t do business with Microsoft, or any of their subsidiaries.

> It’s time to drop Microsoft, LinkedIn, Windows, Azure, and GitHub.

Don't forget to drop DuckDuckGo. (It uses Bing)[0]

Don't use the GPT-3 API or do business with OpenAI (Runs on Azure and Microsoft has exclusive rights to it)

Obviously don't play games on an Xbox One console. (Please don't play Minecraft)

Get off Yammer immediately.

Close Office 365 and uninstall it immediately.

Anything else? /s

I moved my open source projects from Github to Gitlab, and you should too:

I self-host git now, using Gitea; it's remarkably simple and supports TOTP! Sourcehut (https://sr.ht, run by a cool HN person) is also nice.

An overly dramatic flame fest.

ICE doesn't run "concentration camps." That's highly insulting (not to say triggering) to people who've actually suffered in concentration camps.

We'd be dropping a lot more companies if we vehemently followed the logic here.
