Please revisit my original comment. When I wrote it, I put some effort into qualifying things to make it clear that I'm not talking about just what happens on GitHub on the site. I referred to its culture. The things you just described are part of that culture, and very notable elements of it.

- nsonha 6y agoI agree but calling that "github culture" is unfair. It's a culture that emerged independently from github and like I said those metrics on github should not be the target for criticism. I found them pretty useless but some metrics can be good in a team context. I don't think they are a major part of the problem, let alone part of the cause.
