    Spammers have dumped thousands of garbage issues and other attacks into the Notepad++ repo in an uncharacteristic (for github repos) but unsurprising display of shittiness after the author named the release with a statement on the treatment of Uighurs in China. And I thought Reddit was a god-awful place for political discussion.

    Google the repo for the live look, screenshot in case cleanup occurs soon.

    Hoooooly shit some of these are fascinating:

    github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/7486

    github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/7487
    On this one the issue translates to:

    This author, your mother is dead, I am fucking your mother.

    This one's my favorite:
    github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/7477

    Is this satire?

    and

    | When I see that 1.4 billion has health insurance, housing, food, education, and clothes (even the poorest of the poor)
    Press X to doubt.

    Wait, who is on whose side in this? It just seems like... a lot of yelling from everyone?
