Specifically, do you worry that Microsoft is going to eventually do the Microsoft thing and horribly fuck it up for everyone? I've really grown to appreciate the language itself, but I'm wary of it getting too ingrained at work only to have the rug pulled out from under us when it's become hard to back out.
Edit: not really "pulling the rug", but, you know, doing the Microsoft classic.
I can agree with the goal but sadly the corporations have already got their claws deep in the tech stack.
Facebook control React. Google has its hands around Chromium, Android, Go, Angular and I'm sure dozens of others. Then of course Microsoft now own npm, GitHub etc. You're making your life very difficult if you entirely avoid corporate entities.
If we don't give corporations credit when they do run projects well then there's no incentive for them to not go full on capitalist greed and destroy them.

Surely the inverse is also true then? People change, leadership changes, goals change so why assume the Microsoft of today is as bad as its past self?
