Author here. I added the "for me" to try to convey that it's a personal choice. I don't care what pronunciation others use. In this case, it doesn't bother me if someone chooses to discount what I wrote just because of that statement. That's on them. I know it doesn't add much to the post. I just really liked the video of him accepting the Webby award. It was nice to see the person behind the technology, and I like letting creators decide things like pronunciation and casing. For example, I always make sure I spell "GitHub" instead of "Github" for no reason other than that's how they spell it themselves.
