Types of GitHub Users.

- don't post pictures of my face online, that's rude >:(
  In all seriousness I wonder why I always realize I could have explained myself better/left something out/omg formatting error better fix it/holy shit typo after the initial commit, and have like 4 different ones (or a bunch of rebases in an effort to keep the repo clean of this crap) fixing it, instead of pushing just a correct and complete readme from the beginning.
  This is also why most of my Lemmy comments have edits. Not some weird sketchy crap editing things in to make others look bad or totally change my point after getting refuted, but just… oops typo or I could reword that to be more understandable or I meant to say this and totally forgot about it.
  
  Sometimes when it's not a minor edit like when I add some documentation, I usually branch so that I commit freely then just merge it squashing all the commits
  
  Big same
- Look at this amateur, using a mouse to commit. I have a macro defined just to commit and push as a background job so that I can start editing the README again ASAP.
- The worst part? "readme updates" instead of "update readme".
- I commit far too little, and I don't use branches so all my FEAT and FIX and DOC are mixed up, and I... Oh yeah I could just do add, and commit each of them separately... Damn.
  
  Or you could refrain from the dogmatic commit style that serves literally zero purpose because in any healthy software project nobody is ever reading the commit history like that.

the "does most commits to private repositories" user
- you can configure github to paint private repo commits in the tiles, that's what I do, so it almost looks like #3, but less homogeneous.
  
  Kinda, theres a way orgs can now hide the activity. For example, my github:
  and then when im logged in:
  Im in multiple orgs but the main one is protected.
  But GH commit tiles are a silly metric anyways.
  
  Thanks, I didn’t know that. For others also wondering how: https://docs.github.com/en/account-and-profile/setting-up-and-managing-your-github-profile/managing-contribution-settings-on-your-profile/showing-your-private-contributions-and-achievements-on-your-profile
- I’m the “makes commits to Azure DevOps because that’s what his company uses” user, so mine looks a lot like number 4.
  
  How do you ~~enjoy~~ like Azure DevOps?
  I recently had the ~~pleasure~~ of working with it. Thank god I only set up CI for a different team and I'm not part of that project.
- The “my company works with bitbucket or gitlab”.
  I’m the release manager for my company. I’d have so many fucking contributions 😅
  
  or the "ew github? i'm a codeberger" :)
  it's me; i'm a codeberger.

The Weekender is also anyone working professionally. You can't stick any of your real work on public github.
- Github has an option to show private commits in these graphs though
  
  Yup, but you might have another GitHub account!

I'm number 4, but instead of looking for a job, the pattern is subject to my crippling depression. Most of the time I simply feel that it's pointless to work on my projects, so I don't :(
- I see the point in my projects yet I am frustrated and depressed by my perceived lack of progress.
  Want to start a project and procrastinate on it together?
  
  I don't see the point of anything anymore, you folks need a community manager?
- Wow. You're like my polar opposite. Code is a sign of rising depression for me. When I start working on my projets, it's time to worry because it means I've lost all taste for human interaction, or food, or.. sleep.

Wheres the fucker who made loss in his commits
- git commit -m ~~.:|:;~~

My personal is shit, my work account though is lit like a Christmas tree but I can't use that on an application and contrary to popular belief, I don't always feel like spending all night coding after spending all day coding

#3 is my script that converts one particular RSS feed to .ical format, and pushes it to a repo, because setting up a website for one silly script was overkill.
- #3 is actually impossible because the color gradient is relative and dynamic, is it not?
  
  hello I also have big text

- Having multiple accounts is against their TOS
  "One person or legal entity may maintain no more than one free Account (if you choose to control a machine account as well, that's fine, but it can only be used for running a machine)."
  Which is absolutely stupid. I should be able to separate my work commits from my personal commits.
  That said in practice, I'm guessing this is only enforced if they detect you abusing their services.
  
  Work commit are not supposed to be made with a free account. This only says that you can't have multiple free accounts.
- Are you the guy I've been trying to contact for months? Is this why the person with a single repo is never active?
- what's the rationale of creating a new account? Just for using a pseudonym, or something else?
  
  I think the use case is simply separating your professional code from your personal code. I don't need interviewers seeing my throwaway projects.

Needs one that's like #4 from January to September, labelled: "Fuck Github and anything else owned my Microsoft".
- Nah, that's still interacting with Github.

Where weekdayer

People who work at Apple: Completely Blank

Wish it would include commits of our closed Gitlab instance on Github, then I wouldn’t be #4

Sounds like a good opportunity to draw some square kufic.

Third one should be called "A Bot"
- 100%
  My GitHub profile looked like that for a while when I was using my own PAT for a CI step that did repo syncing.
  Now a bot account gets all the credit. :(
