It’s especially bizzare when git repos for “open source corporate alternative” type software uses it over their own repo’s issue trackers and forums.
WTF
They want the social media engagement, I guess. But *still*. It’s ridiculous how much of a blind spot folks have for it.
It also makes giving *or* getting any kind of support a hellish time sink, but that’s almost besides the point…

Its a cheap way to pretend that you care about customer service, while actually dissuading customers strongly from actually trying. Its also completely easy to bot vs having a human on a phone line.
