    Even with Linux though, so much of it relies on Github (think Nix Flakes, the AUR, and just general random apps that live there etc.) which is owned by MS. Not that they would necessarily just nuke Github one day (because that would be an insane thing to do) but just the general idea that MS is in a position to disrupt so much of the Linux ecosystem if they really wanted to makes me uneasy.

      I love nix but it’s my main gripe with nixos. They really should switch to an alternative service.

      Fully agree there, Linux should not be hosted on a service manageby Microsoft, if even just for the principle of it.
