Do you have an actual complaint here, or just buzzwords? Calling something an “anti-pattern” or “undesired” doesn’t mean anything.
Your comment contains no substance that couldn’t have been conveyed by saying “I hate it”. If you don’t like it, don’t use it. That’s what I do. Is there an actual reason that the mere existence of social networking features is harmful to those of us who choose not to bother with them?

- githubuser123 4y agoIt's infuriating that people don't make themselves easily reachable on GitHub. So many people with so much talent, wasting it on some really meaningless stuff.

For example, thanks to the norms fostered on GitHub, you can no longer expect the average programmer to file good bug reports or to just interact in an appropriate way with the bugtracker. We can't really talk about "wikis", either, without confusion about what a wiki even is—again, thanks to GitHub.

Was it done properly? I suspect that average programmer just didn't report anything, instead of create new GitHub issue. It's annoying to sign up each ML or bugzilla.
