You guys realize this was on a joke community, right? Most of the original comments missed it too...

r/github is a joke community?

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 48 points 9 months ago

At this point r/ itself is a joke community.

The original text was not on github.

Saw it on copypasta yesterday. It's possible this is an old screenshot and I could've seen the repost.

EDIT : seems I'm wrong and this is just an old picture.

Good find. I guess this is an old picture.

The post was made 3 days ago. The picture is of this exact post. It's not exactly old

I took the screenshot before the post was even locked, you can also find a comment by me on that thread.

Yes, I think that most of us realized from some of the self-aware wording that this is a parody. But like many parodies it's a real trope taken to a silly extreme, so we're talking about users who fit that trope (including ourselves, sometimes!).
