Are github users gamers? Really puts the "git" into "github" there.

An impressive number of 4chan's /g/ users are on github. Some even actively contribute to Linux (though usually to Arch, Gentoo, and now more and more Nix).

I wrote a paper during college that I should release some time about when /g/ threw an absolute shitfit over Linus going "so, I've been a kinda shit human being to people and I'm going to step back and get some help", going as far as to blame his daughter/"the woke mob"/multiple named core kernel contributors for killing their god.

At one point, I attended a GitHub event that wasn't directly sponsored by github but encouraged a lot of github users to show up. While there I met several people who, outside the venue, were talking animatedly about Terry Davis. Listening in on the conversation revealed that they more or less just approved of his extensive use of racist language and epithets.

I haven't checked, but I would suspect that Linus' recent "trans rights" by proxy post has caused at least one or two aneurisms in the /g/ user group.

/g/ is pretty mainstream among the zoomers they browse it publicly. Also 4chan is among one of the most popular websites on the internet so it doesn't come off as a surprise.

A large number of people you meet, from all walks of life, will admit that 4chan is a guilty pleasure. At least I’ve met a ton and none of them were right leaning to say the least.

That would be my general theory as well, you're far more likely to meet someone who is left leaning who admits to having posted on 4chan (or still does) than you are otherwise. Maybe it has to do with perceived biases, in that a right leaning person/group is probably then going to feel they are aligned with the seediest aspects of 4chan, whether they actually do or not and their perceived social impact/failings for using 4chan.
