Two ways GitHub marketing is making things annoying:

1) sending an email every few days (to each of my addresses!) explaining some basic feature of GitHub.

2) the title of every GitHub page is now, "GitHub - Where software is built", instead of something actually useful like the name of the repo, or whether it's the code or the issues, etc.
