@Burk it really doesn’t, and the majority of the time once one of these takeovers happens it’s bye bye to whomever got bought out. Either they get dissolved, or the quality plummets (or both). Honestly, I’m surprised GitHub didn’t seem to suffer that fate yet.

@peterimoore @burk I’d be a lot more concerned if it was Google, Facebook, or Amazon.

@simonwoods Never count them out! When unlimited money and little strategy is involved, strange things happen!

@hjertnes I guess they just want to make it an even 10 chat platforms under one roof that don't work together? 🤷‍♂️

@Burk Honestly, of all the big players I think Microsoft is the best bet and it’s not even close.

@simonwoods @burk True, especially Google who’s well known for throwing a bunch of stuff at the wall to see what sticks, only to abandon it down the road.
