Who are you quoting?

  "Writing software doesn't require GitHub". Well, if they do not need whatever is specific to github and claim that someone who sorely lacks these features has a mental problem...

    To be fair, the author of the post said the same thing. From the other thread on HN, they themselves said: "Nobody should cry over a SaaS, of all things. But GitHub has meant so much more to me than that (all laid out in the post). I have an unhealthy relationship with it. "

  That was paraphrasing, rather than quoting. The post being replied to essentially said “I don't use the features that have been regularly broken in recent times, or where the features I do use [core git] were broken it luckily didn't affect me, so anyone thinking of leaving has a mental problem”. Or to paraphrase the old joke: Q: How many programmers does it take to change a lightbulb? A: The sunlight through the windows here is working fine, if you can't see where you are that must be a “you” problem.
