Thanks Matthew! I will say one thing, I agree that there are major costs, but the longer I work in this space the more I appreciate the benefits there might be to *not* being on GitHub. I recently (finally) read Nadia Eghbal's Working in Public, where she points out that *adding* friction to the process of users commandeering maintainers' attention might be a good thing — commons tend to be depleted when there is no cost to exploiting them, and open source communities are an attention commons where maintainers' attention is constantly being used unsustainably.
That's been bouncing around in my head for a few months. This post just adds fuel to that idea. Juan.
