Oh come on, it was a really big deal. M$ bought GitHub. FOSS collectively shit itself for a week

Github was bought in 2018. For all we know, OP could have been 10 at the time

OP said they were 63 and only now getting into programming. I can understand not knowing these things tbh.

It was also ages ago. Any discussion of it will have long since died down so if OP is new to programming then they won't have come across this.
