I’ve been publishing and contributing to open source software for 15+ years and have never experienced that attitude. Granted, none of my stuff reached huge success, but they are out there; I’ve also been close to a few mainstream projects, and from my POV this seems exaggerated. If anything, scaremongering comments like yours are what might stop people from publishing more.

It’s also pretty straightforward to disable issues in GitHub and ignore all the noise.

Just look around this thread, you can find the described attitude even here.
