Microsoft loves open source nowadays.

People do a huge amount of their work for free.

They're also heavily invested in Linux for the cloud. So any work done there helps them.

The only thing Microsoft is investing in is marketing to fool people into thinking they're your friend. Remember that Copilot is automated open source license violation at scale. They're building a tool to take your work, without crediting you, so others can use it without compensating you.

This is "love" in the same way an abusive relationship is "love".
