I am not sure this is a bad thing. GitHub was kind of stagnant before MS took over. Lots of good things have happened to GitHub under MS, including free private repos. Nat Friedman seems legit and dedicated.
I used to like Bitbucket better than GitHub but now I am not so sure. Bitbucket is often slow and unresponsive and I never liked Jira. But I do not plan on moving my code from Bitbucket anytime soon.
Yes, this "Microsoft bad" catch my eye as well. I also think Microsoft involvement has been positive so far. It seems that Microsoft still has some of that Gates/Ballmer era stigma on some.
I am however confused about Github vs. Azure DevOps. Essentially on source code management these two tools are "competitors" and Github is moving also to Azure DevOps world with CI offerings. So in the roadmap I would like to know what is Microsoft's roadmap on these two products? Surely Github being cloud independent and very popular is going to stay but will DevOps eventually going to merge to it? I hope so.
I don't think that Github and Azure DevOps will merge anytime soon. Github actions are still quite limited. For example, you can still only build .NET Core projects and not .NET Framework with Actions. Also, the whole project management thing in DevOps is way more advanced than Github issue tracking.
But in the long run I don't think it makes sense for Microsoft to maintain both systems.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.

I'm also staying on Github for that, good improvement have been made I have to say ^^

Yes, Microsoft has changed a lot since Ballmer.
