On what grounds do you expect anything of someone working on an open source project?
If your goal really is to spread awareness about (completely valid imo) concerns regarding GitHub, I’d suggest you not to do it in such a hostile way.
What I expected to see is not the same as what I expect someone to do.
Mailing lists used to be the norm, more free software has been migrating… but also in this specific case the maker is promoting user not use a Google-owned proprietary platform while hosting on a Microsoft-owned proprietary platform which smells of hypocrisy–especially when with code forges there are several great alternative options.
Notice that I’m not saying you’re wrong, I’m saying that if you want to get your point across, it’s unhelpful to take an offensive stance against the person you’re trying to convince.

Should we be saying “pwetty pwease”? Publicly shaming is a fair way to get a point across.
