Try it yourself: https://codeburg.org/

The actual site is https://codeberg.org/

Funny how Microsoft registered the domain on PorkBun, and chose not to publish the ownership information. And yet you know the real owner.

That, or you're just lying IDK...

I just wanted to say I appreciate you taking the time to fact check OP's claim

Yeah their main Microsoft.com domain is registered with MarkMonitor like so many other Fortune 500 companies. So no, I really doubt they own this unless some intern went rogue.
