What's your opinion about that? Will you continue using GitHub?
Both GitLab and Bitbucket can be used instead to host your D
projects - dub registry supported them for a while now.
IMHO Microsoft isn't the type of company I want to see behind
the GitHub. Maybe I am wrong since Microsoft has both money and
programmers to improve it further, I just don't trust them too
much which is the right thing to do when dealing with
companies. This means that I will move my repositories
elsewhere and use GitHub just to contribute to other projects.
Looks like a done deal, will be announced tomorrow:

It all depends on how much support they pour into github, but I
agree it's not a good sign.
