1
Add a bio
One line — who you are and what you build — frames everything below it. Don't make recruiters guess.
2
Add a pinned 'about me' README
A profile README (username/username repo) is prime real estate — most strong profiles use it.
3
Keep the streak alive
You're in good shape — steady public commits and the occasional write-up keep the signal fresh.
4
Pin your 3 strongest repos (linux, AudioNoise, uemacs)
Pinned repos are the profile's storefront — lead with your highest-star, original work.
Signal-based, not gatekeeping — derived from your public activity, reach, and project depth.
