Sucks they trained on our data and hard work when all we wanted was a place to put our code and have others look at it.

Microsoft ruins everything they touch. They will find a way to ruin Github shortly.

Anyone posting a step-by-step to do a full migration from Github to another provider would get a lot of traffic to their blog in short time.

You really didn't see that coming at the moment they bought Github? That was their entire intent, to have full access to all of the greatest minds in software... Everyone should have bailed immediately after acquisition... If you don't control the servers that your code is on, it's no longer your code, at the very least, you're sharing with your hosting provider. But, everyone needs to hurry up and jump to market, instead of taking the time to build their own servers, custom development environment, etc. So, because everyone followed the herd, now everyone is lead slaughter... This was a collective choice made out of laziness, convenience, false sense of necessity, greed, etc... We have no to blame but ourselves, because it wouldn't have happen if we didn't choose it...
