This seems verifiably false since Github did in fact sponsor conferences, efforts and perks.

So one bad story, that the details aren't entirely clear on, that resulted in the ousting of a founder, means Github, despite going out of their way to put money on the table to support the cause, isn't worthy?

"With friends like these..." seems apt.
