I thought they bought GitHub ages ago?

Depends on the beholder's POV I guess; but yeah, even to a middle-aged fart like me 2018 is not "recent" anymore.

GitHub was founded in 2008 so nearly half its life it has been owned my MS. Yeah, "recent" doesn't feel like a good fit here.

Yes, vice versa even to a young bird like me 2018 was just yesterday and the acquisition by Microsoft feels even more recent.
