(probably not) Microsoft bought "codeburg.org" and redirects it to github.

Try it yourself: https://codeburg.org

The actual site is https://codeberg.org

Edit: sorry I was making a baseless claim in the title. I dont have proof that Microsoft did it. Here’s the whois for what information is actually known.

Funny how Microsoft registered the domain on PorkBun, and chose not to publish the ownership information. And yet you know the real owner.

That, or you’re just lying IDK…

Yeah their main Microsoft.com domain is registered with MarkMonitor like so many other Fortune 500 companies. So no, I really doubt they own this unless some intern went rogue.
