    I use GitHub private repos for my home configuration stuff. So it’s not open source since I’m the only one using it and I don’t want someone else to know how to attack my network.

    For certain configurations, self hosting doesn’t make sense. For people like me, who would rather spend his time doing the stuff I care about instead of maintaining the stuff I don’t care about, I’m okay giving Microsoft some “control” over my code for the convenience.

    That said, I am thinking about moving my FOSS code off of GitHub since that is an option. I’d have to see their CI/CD pipelines though.
