GitHub CEO resigns to go back to doing his own thing:

…my startup roots have begun tugging on me and I’ve decided to leave GitHub to become a founder again. GitHub and its leadership team will continue its mission as part of Microsoft’s CoreAI organization, with more details shared soon. I’ll be staying through the end of 2025 to help guide the transition and am leaving with a deep sense of pride in everything we’ve built as a remote-first organization spread around the world.

GitHub is a unique product that deserves to be run independently. But also, I’m not too worried about this change.
