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?

OK but in the non open source instance, that's fine. I'm more so calling on a lot of these non profits, foundations, or other orgs preaching OSS and open internet, yet use GH. They have a lot of influence and are well known, which could hello addition to other platforms.
