(probably not) Microsoft bought "codeburg.org" and redirects it to github.

Try it yourself: https://codeburg.org
The actual site is https://codeberg.org
Edit: sorry I was making a baseless claim in the title. I dont have proof that Microsoft did it. Here's the whois for what information is actually known.
Funny how Microsoft registered the domain on PorkBun, and chose not to publish the ownership information. And yet you know the real owner.
That, or you're just lying IDK...
I just wanted to say I appreciate you taking the time to fact check OP's claim
And I appreciate you saying that
Yeah their main Microsoft.com domain is registered with MarkMonitor like so many other Fortune 500 companies. So no, I really doubt they own this unless some intern went rogue.

For the curious: https://digger.tools/lookup/codeburg.org/whois so no, this is (in high likelihood) just a slightly expensive joke by someone
Why expensive? eg. codebarg.org would be 7.20€/year https://www.namecheap.com/domains/registration/results/?domain=codebarg.org
codeburg.org couldn't have been that much more expensive.
I mean as opposed to not spending any money at all, I just admire the commitment to the troll
That just tells where the domain was registered, right? And that whoever did it chose to hide their info
Yes, there is no way to know for sure unless someone reported the activity on the website to porkbun and somehow their identity had to be exposed, I don't even know if that's possible.
It's just highly unlikely, I could make the wording fit that, actually
Is it for sure Microsoft?

I don’t it’s farfetched that microsoft would do this. But yeah, we can’t know for sure.
Yeah... this sounds like a conspiracy theory tbh.
Does anyone own codeburger.org?
welcome to codeburger home of the codeburger can i take your order please?
One spaghetti code, please.
I tried running whois on the domain and can't get any information
It's possible OP is lying
Are you sure it's Microsoft?
No I was being accusatory unfairly. I've updated my post.
Yeah don't do that
I know you already edited the post, but someone need to post This
