Yes, remember how copying anything from the code view would also copy the line numbers? It was a relatively small CSS fix, but took years!

I never quite understood why this didn't get fixed before by the way, because it really wasn't that hard. Usually when $big_corp takes over $small_outfit things get worse instead of better, due to overbearing $big_corp policy, culture clashes, leadership not really understanding what they bought, and things like that.

Whatever else can be said about Microsoft: in the year or two after they took over GitHub lots of things – small and large – got fixed or improved.
