    Have you asked the AI you use whether you can use "Github" (a trademarked name) in your product?

      I mentioned in legal notice that the project is not affiliated with github and reason i named it GitHub Store is because it discovers projects directly from github!!!

        Have you asked the AI you use whether this is enough when approaching trademark issue?

        The question still stands.

    github would be universally better if they completely removed starring repositories. 2010 era irrelevance that everyone uses incorrectly

      A similar thing happens with npmjs downloads. Some people actually judge the quality of a npm package by how many automated build pipelines are pulling a certain package daily.

      Not sure I agree it would be better, but yes, what exactly is the obsession with stars? Some repos even have a chart in the readme that shows their star progression. That tells me what exactly?

      Glad - I - wasn’t the only one that saw - AI article - giveaways…

      GitHub stars have been proven to be easily purchasable.

      Happy to hear the progress and that should be celebrated without the focus on stars.

    Nice, you should consider adding other sources as well like Codeberg, GitLab, and Sourcehut. Many projects are moving away from GitHub.

    As others have pointed out, maybe stars aren’t the best metric, although I’m not sure what better metrics are easily derived.

    (Don’t let the haters here get you down, they hate everything.)

    I know we are not supposed to comment on the UX experience of sites. However, I still feel the need to complain that the unnecessary animations I encountered while scrolling to read what this is about. I am complete uninterested now.

      I am sorry, but i love when UI is expressive and when there is animations that make it more expressive!

    I am very sorry, but why does it scream AI, including the Readme, emojis, the post that mentions the age, as the most of such 1-week projects? As if the whole project was made by an LLM, similar to those dozens per day posted at /r/ClaudeCode?

    And not to mention, a yet again, politics agitation...

    That said, how much human was involved into this project, if I may ask?

    I do not want to disrespect anyone, but I just want to trust your project, and to do so I must know how much there is yours of your own mind you trust yourself.

      Mind is fully mine behind it but i still use AI to polish it and i really like its work in the end! Its not shame to use AI!

    • rainxchzed 42 minutes ago
      A lot of human hard work involved

      Its true that i use AI to polish things as of now, but i swear by the time i started the project i used almost 0 AI help.!

      Please learn to value some's hard work rather than right away trying to make joke out of it.

        no there wasn’t and it is very obvious that it wasn’t

      I really did but it was after GHS's launch and it really didnt got too much points... sadly.

    It’s not a good idea to use another companies name in your name.

    Also stars are a relatively useless metric that’s very easily gamed. I would try to find another metric that’s more focused on what value was provided.

        Pirating sites also always have a "Please only download the content if you have a valid license" in the footer...it's meaningless especially if there's a high potential for confusion as you are even active right in the same field. I originally thought it might be a GitHub merchandise store.

      Why do you care so much about the name?
    • tardedmeme 54 minutes ago
      It only matters if they sue you, though.
      • dewey 36 minutes ago
        Just like robbing a store is only a problem if they catch you.
