so... after GitHub...
who will buy stackoverflow?

@electric-ghost might be unpopular, but I think atlasian and github belonging to the same company would make for an interesting combination. Full JIRA and Confluence with every git repo? Count me in.

And yes, I know they have bitbucket. But then again why go to bitbucket when github and gitlab have just an as good implementation with jira/confluence?

@electric-ghost exactly. Atlassian would have had great potential with bitbucket. But they didn't use it. I guess M$ would at least be that smart, or use github to create a alternative to JIRA/Confluence (as you said GitHub Pages/Wiki is way inferior to confluence and also things like trello/asana don't stand a chance against jira...)

I'm afraid one day it will all end to be:
Apple
Microsoft
Google
Facebook
Oracle
Amazon

Any other big tech company I forgot?

@gitpush Hexical Labs
in 2020 dfox and trogus will receive a 2.1 billion dollar VC investment. Following rapid growth towards marked rantingleadership in the developers segment.

you forgot the chinese
tencent
Alibaba

and japans softbank... they are slinging the billions of dollhairs and buying so much companies.

@heyheni guess it's time to build a startup and sell it 😂

Given the assholish behaviour of the regulars at SO, I think Oracle would be the most logical buyer.

@Fast-Nop totaly agree! 😄👍

@Wack ms already has tfs/vsts

@gitpush strange you put Oracle there. In my mind Oracle is far below the rest on that list. Including Oracle would be like including IBM.

Hope microsoft does and then they delete all the questions from whatever database it has and then make it a fresh start with nicer devs 🙏

@TonyG oh ya forgot about IBM, and there is also SAP, let's see where this thing will end

Then I'd be fucked but so be it.

When a company has cashoverflow

You mean... Stack Exchange.
