That's odd, it's the opposite for me. I did like GitHub, but then setup a Gitea and made sure to figure out how to move things over (even if I haven't done it since they haven't really given me a reason) after Microsoft acquired it. Now I watch every move with a weary eye, though truth be told so far it's going fine (mostly by being hands-off, of course).
I do assume a lot of this is their own money, but with the financial security that Microsoft offers you just can't do much wrong. Even without actual money actually moving, it might still be MS funding that makes the difference.
