One, our githubcustomers/ contact is already forwarding anything / setting up a call with the team as needed, and two, that is not a twitter profile I'd ever send a DM to in a professional context, considering you retweet a lot of people diametrically opposed to my existence.

I will check in with our githubcustomers group to help accelerate. I can also directly inform our engineering team if you're open to sending me your information at

thejoebourneidentity@github.com

Either way, we're looking into this issue and I'll post an update here once we've learned more.

Asking end users of your product to report issues via DM'ing your personal Twitter account, an account which is full of retweets of homophobic garbage, is really REALLY bad.

Quietly editing your comment after being called out to hide it is even worse.

Agreed. Thanks for pointing this out. I'm genuinely curious now what their Twitter profile is, but my guess is they'll delete the tweets or remove the Twitter account.

Microsoft notoriously hires a lot of people from the Federal Sector who unfortunately appear to be mostly right-wing religious zealots.
