No one goes for source unless they have recommendation or use it and it wouldn't matter in those cases where it is hosted.
Lot's use Github, but it doesn't matter. Lots hate Microsoft too.
Oh, outside Western sphere (including my coountry), there are a lot of tech entusiast that also a Microsoft "fans, "the same way Apple fans are exist.
Also, in my experience, despite I hate Microsoft, I found so many niche open source project that almost never in any English FOSS discussion. Especially, project that belongs to Indonesian, Chinese, or Japanese FOSS community. Example: video player with Japanese learning capabilities, video downloader for specific Chinese video hosting, or anime tracker with Chinese site as its database.
I wish FOSS community will provide alternative to social experience and recommendation like GitHub. With ActivityPub :)
