I don’t like this trend of closed source projects releasing on GitHub personally. It makes it difficult to determine the license (which is important) at a glance.

Even some projects that offer only APIs on GitHub make it seem like they’re more open source than they are, putting the whole project info into the readme. Some people care about visibility into the software that runs on their machine.
