I could see how this would leave a bad taste in your mouth, but I'm not sure it follows that Github is the lesser evil.
I can't think of specific examples (aside from the EEE philosophy brought up in the post and copilot if you consider that to be a Bad Thing), but Microsoft seems to have done plenty of Bad Stuff in the past. Maybe a comparable amount, if not more, Bad Stuff than GitLab?
