| This looks like some very finely crafted phishing. |

| I agree, but it’s real → https://x.com/github/status/2072801888525840476 OP should have used the shortened, more official-looking, link: https://gh.io/cd |

| Rather concerned that there's exactly two comments noticing this. I immediately was like "um, it's an Office 365 form, are people this gullible". EDIT: Fortunately a few more people getting it now. Maybe I'm the dingus but, just not good vibes. Apparently it's probably "fine": https://x.com/github/status/2072801888525840476 Shout-out to the downvoters, may you continue filling randomly linked, MS Forms blindly from nameless accounts, eat your hearts out. |

| ▲ | semilin an hour ago | parent | next [-] | | This is entirely irrelevant. The problem is that anybody can make a Microsoft Form and there's no obvious indication that it's a form from Github without digging around. | | |
| ▲ | memermeme an hour ago | parent [-] | | The alternative is that someone managed to hijack the official GitHub social media accounts on X, TikTok, Instagram, and Threads to post this, and four hours later, no one from the official leadership has come out to call it out. I find that hard to believe. It's probably legit. I also heavily doubt its a joke. Shipping a thousand CDs is a drop in the bucket for a company like this. The free marketing they get from this promotion more than makes up for any cost associated with doing so. |
