The backlash from banning GitHub links would be magnitudes larger than JSFiddle.

The low-effort snark is unnecessary and weakens the conversation. At least make it witty.

JSFiddle is a pretty low tier target that most people won't miss. Github links aren't. Also, I'd imagine Github Pages is more responsive to taking down scamware, it at least requires an account, and has more of an interested in keeping malicious behavior off the platform.


What demographic does twitter like to hire? Probably people who use github a lot, huh?
