In the grand scheme of things likely not, it's just a vocal minority that can dominate the perspective on social media and places like Reddit, talking about exodus and betrayal and who knows what. Sadly, it works...and it twists the narrative.

The reports from Gitlab that they've had a significant uptick in signups can't be ignored though. Probably people in search of a new underdog since Atlassian and Bitbucket are out of the equation there.

Twist's whose narrative? MS' history is written plainly for all the world to see. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_litigation
Creates a false perception that significant amount of projects are moving away from GitHub.
Fake news :-)
Out of curiosity, why would BitBucket be out of question?
Atlassian's not really an "underdog", presumably. As for me, I would hate to have my source code in the hands of the people responsible for "JIRA".
To be fair, Bitbucket is loads more pleasant to use than Jira.
