I think a lot of us use it as a professional portfolio. The interface is a little wierd (e.g. the github account networkx already has a networkx repo with extremely obvious reason), but overall I've wanted something similar. But omfg please don't be like fb and add a dating feature
This is actually a nice feature that goes along with one of the common use cases. Since there are alternate git options I don't mind having things like this.
Now to get a job or keep being employed I need to grind leetcode for months, actively participate in top open source projects on GitHub, know the latest trends, and be a systems designs guru.
Now that I'm starting a family, I'm worried I won't be able to keep up as I've done so far.
I sometimes envy people that can disconnect from their 9-5, take a break every week, go on regular vacations, relax at the pool.
It’s a nice feature you can choose to use if you want. I’ve often been asked about projects on my gh account, and it’s good to have this tools alongside a static website tool like Jekyll
