If you apply for a niche position with <10 applicants in total, yes they will jump. But if they are flooded with applications, no they won't; they can safely bet that there is another applicant with similar qualifications and more accessible OSS presence.

That's just a few different shades of "weird" as a person.
The resume is all the recruiter knows about you at that moment. Do you really want any "WTF"/"weird" spots in it? This is setting up the board for the recruiter to make the (subconscious) deduction "weird resume" -> "this may be a weird person". They may or may not do it, but it surely won't get your resume any points.

That is quite unlikely. You are overestimating amount of programmers with non minimal oss presence. And, if they are flooded they won't search you by name. They might maybe click on cv link. > That's just a few different shades of "weird" as a person. That is small price for having control, really.
