Well at least they are slighty more open to open source software since it make them money.
They're just making face, doing what is necessary to prove they're not evil, cuz open source software is in now.
Microsoft open-sourced all of dotnet core, which is arguably the largest and most well-maintained (with exceptions) collection of tools/platforms for developers that exsists to date. So, I don't really agree that they're just "making face"
They're absolutely just "making face". For each thing Microsoft frees, how many more are proprietary shit? Visual Studio, proprietary. Windows, proprietary. Etc.
