If only the article used any of that. And if it did, I still don't think the headline was warranted. Also Google search trends are no evidence of adoption or migration. High chance of correlation, sure.

And what level of 'growth' constitutes a trend that warrants "developers are ditching GitHub" without providing any numbers at all?
