Even if you're running the "onion only" build, this only means that sites are accessible via onion addresses. It doesn't mean that everything gets routed through Tor. If full anonymity is your aim then it's probably a good idea to just stick strictly to using TAILS.
* Can I add a clearnet domain to an onion build?
You could if you manually edited the relevant nginx configuration files and installed some dynamic DNS system yourself. If you already have sysadmin knowledge then that's probably not too hard. But the builds created with the *onion-addresses-only* option aren't really intended to support access via clearnet domains.
* Why use Github?
Github is paradoxically a centralized, closed and proprietary system which happens to mostly host free and open source projects. Up until now it has been relatively benign, but at some point in the name of "growth" it will likely start becoming more evil, or just become like SourceForge - which was also once much loved by FOSS developers, but turned into a den of malvertizing.
At present Github is useful just because of the sheer number of eyeballs and the easy discoverability of projects via search.
The source code for this project is experimentally independently hosted, and it is expected that in future the main development will shift over to an independent site, maybe with mirrors on Github if it still exists in a viable form.
Currently many of the repositories used for applications which are not yet packaged for Debian are on Github, and to provide some degree of resilliance against depending too much upon that copies of them also exist within disk images.
* What are the data protection implications of running this system?
Data protection laws such as [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Data_Protection_Regulation][GDPR]] in the EU or the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Protection_Act_1998][Data Protection Act]] in the UK usually only apply to formal organizations which are recognized as being legal entities. So you have to be running a business or a charity or some other formal organization in order for the storage of what's known as /personally identifying information/ to potentially become a legal issue. Laws like this usually include:
