GitHub isn't fun anymore  ↦

Jared Palmer:

At first I thought it was just me getting older and more experienced. But after several conversations about it with colleagues and other open source maintainers, I’m not the only one who feels this way.

After a lot of reflection, I believe the turning point was when they changed how the ranking system on the Trending page worked.

I don’t know if I ever considered GitHub fun, but I agree the trending section has lost value over the years. You know what is fun, though? Getting the day’s hottest new & trending repos delivered directly to your inbox. That’s what. 😉
