A bug: See https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/46691#discussi...

(Well, if we believe the statement "github engineer here". Of course every clown could write that, too)

If you look at their profile[0], you can see they are a member of the GitHub organization and that they are marked as GitHub staff.

How do you see that? At leat in my mobile browser nothing jumps into my eye. This user has contributions to @github, but very few.

It doesn't appear to be visible on mobile, only desktop.

Ah, good catch. We'll try to see if we can fix that in the future so the mobile site shows our staff badges.

We could submit a patch to fix it! Oh? It's closed source and proprietary? Why did we choose this platform then?

Personally I prefer gitlab. Just wanted to look at a bug I noted in their product this week (European weeks start on Monday :) ). Gave up because I couldn't find my way around, whether it's already reported. But at least with unlimited time I could probably do it.
