After nearly four years as CEO, I’m leaving GitHub to become a startup founder again. With more than 1B repos and forks, 150M+ developers, and Copilot continuing to lead the most thriving market in AI with 20M users and counting, GitHub has never been stronger than it is today.

Just because I am CEO of GitHub, I will not be ashamed to publicly admit that I am anxiously awaiting the re-release of @taylorswift13 1989. Anyone who says this isn't her best album is wrong.
