Also, they spam people's inboxes. I'm a designer, can't code beyond HTML/CSS, and they (their bots?) keep sending me an email to join their platform. It's annoying, and I don't think I can do anything about it except reporting their email as a junk and blocking them.

Does any body knows where this platform got people's email from? They started to spam me emails yet I never really remember giving my email to them. Is it possible that they retrieve my email from GitHub?

Not sure, but in my case, I'm guessing they got my email from HN whoishiring threads.

Yes, if you have an email listed on your GitHub profile they will spam it.
