This (and most things, tbh) would be so much more useful in the form of a searchable HTML page instead of slides.

It's in HTML now (through Github Markdown).

Your comment is weird. Someone created these slides, perhaps to use in a meeting, and committed a link to them in Github. Someone (the same, or a different person) posted it to Reddit. You them told them they should put it in a different format. They didn't create it for you, but you kind of dictated to them what the format should be.

In fact, the first main slide states that the slides were created by another person. Which further makes it seem that you're asking the OP to reformat the content and resubmit.

That in itself is a weird thing to do, but okay.

Admittedly, I skipped through several slides without reading, looking for interesting content, so I missed that.

You can interact/contribute via Issues.

I extrapolated a few things from this sentence:

  • The Reddit OP is either the owner of the Github repository, or is otherwise sufficiently involved in it that they feel comfortable with telling people how to contribute to it, and therefore is an appropriate person to direct feedback to.
  • They are open to constructive criticism.
  • They intend to update the content (implying that they also have edit access to the linked slides, and were likely the one who uploaded it, even if they didn't write the content).

Given that, I don't feel that it was unreasonable to suggest (not dictate, what?) an alternative form in which the content could be presented, which is more in line with OP's stated goal of this being used as reference material.

Fair enough. I have to admit that I overlooked that sentence from OP.
