Why aren't more people using Codeberg or something open source (lemmy.today)

Since Microsoft owns Github, Gitlab is Corp owned now since 2022, why are so many who preach privacy or using Linux, etc, still using a MS product?

Genuine questions. I'm assumming either familiarity & simplicity with GH or difficulty migrating elsewhere?

I remember when I started on Linux and the open source world in general that the "Releases" button on Github was like an omnipresent being, you knew it was there but not where.

Probably it was just me being dumb but idk.

Not unique to you. Been using Github every day for over 15 years and it wasn't until I started using Refined Github that it was easy to find the releases page. Horrific design.
