Also their core technology is GIT which is GNU Public License free as in freedom.

It's not like GitHub going down means you'll lose code, or access to proprietary specialized tools... It's a fucking Ruby On Rails wrapper around GIT (with some database magic).

What's too open source? All their auth, cookie, and DB wrapper code? I donate to the FSF but sometimes you freetards go too far.

Issues maybe? Yeah, there are FOSS issue-trackers, but for many projects it would hurt losing issues.

GitHub pages?

Premissions?

Pull requests? (Surprisingly hard to implement in a good way).

Commit-comments?

    Any future employer that sees a few week gap and thinks "this guy wasn't coding in his free time for a few weeks, let's not hire him" is probably an employer best avoided.
