so it's not decentralized anymore basically? fuck that's a bummer. can't they just create a new github that doesn't sell out. i have no idea what these coins do just here for the memes the 2x's and the AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA's. although i always believed in the concept of these coins and decentralization no bully

No that's not how it works
If Microsoft were to create a backdoor in anybody's code, then Microsoft would be sued with criminal charges and the company would crumble. Microsoft isn't stupid enough to do that
Even if Microsoft DID do that, the developers of the crypto would detect it right away and just revert the changes before making the changes live

You might be surprised to learn that Bitcoin started off on Sourceforge, not Github. It'll move somewhere else if there's a problem. There's technically no real reason why we can't just make a decentralized platform now anyway.

Jesus christ, git is already decentralized you retards. Github is only a public repository with a web interface and issue tracker. There already is GitLab which is basically open source GitHub, you also have GNU Savannah which is where Richard Stallman stores all his code.
