I like shitting on M$FT as much as the next bloke but if you believe Github started being evil when Microsoft entered the picture then your memory is pretty awful.
From it's inception github pushed proprietary tagging and issue numbers that have no meaning outside their platform and a difficult export process to trap projects - especially commercial ones - on their platform.
I remember moving a project from github to gitlab years ago and the process to move all the non-git data from github was just as easy as moving the git repo itself. Thanks to gitlab's efforts perhaps, but I didn't expect github to have made it difficult for them based on the experience I ended up having.
I was being diplomatic because I was uncertain how people felt about the issue and PR tracking, considering how Bitbucket and GitLab replicate it. Felt simpler to focus on the since-M$ft egregious steps.
