- GitHub users express strong opposition to the inclusion of xAI's Grok in Copilot, citing ethical concerns and Elon Musk's controversial reputation.
- Several users threaten to migrate their repositories to alternative platforms like Codeberg or self-hosted solutions due to this partnership.
- Criticism includes accusations of GitHub/Microsoft abandoning their stated values by collaborating with a figure associated with fascist ideologies.
