TIL that Mono is a Microsoft project. I always thought it was an open source reverse engineered .NET

Microsoft is cancer but then so much of tech is going that way. We shouldn't lose sight of small victories, this is a good result. The EU is enforcing more openness and transparency in the sector. These are the type of changes we need.

Read the headline and thought "there's a catch..."

Finally got around to reading the post and Microsoft is very politely saying "we've completed stealing their shit now. Don't know why anyone would want it, use ours now. You can have it though."

Thanks I guess? I'm glad it's out of their hands now and with an open source group that cares and can make a difference.
