🔥 Full roast

🔥 Registered for 5.5 years with 8 followers and 27 following, you've mastered the art of being a GitHub simp. All your original repos have 0 stars, and half your PRs to 100k-star projects like Rust are

y1lan — 68.20/100 · NPC (Average · Unremarkable)

TL;DR: A 5-year GitHub account that functions more as a personal code scratchpad and project bookmark folder than a source of shipped, impactful open source — zero stars on original work, minimal community pull, and a contribution record split between self-serve tweaks and trivial external fixes.

DimensionScoreNotes
Account maturity9.5/105.56 years registered, 7 years of active contribution history, last activity 18 days ago — the only dimension where you don’t look like a tourist.
Original project quality4.8/186 original repos, 5 non-empty, 0 total stars, top repo (zankyo, a personal rhythm game) has 0 stars and a 0.8 quality score, top-starred original repo quality score is 0 — your home turf is a code wasteland with zero audience pull.
Contribution quality16.8/2715 merged PRs out of 23 total, 1 maintainer-closed unmerged PR, 2 self-closed external PRs, 1 self-closed own-repo PR; 4 of 15 recent merged PRs are trivial, 3 are doc-like, external doc-like PR ratio is 0.33 — nearly a third of your external work is polishing docs/site/CSS on other people’s projects, not rebuilding engines.
Ecosystem / maintenance impact20/208 PRs + 10 commits across 8 popular repos (all-time, including rust-lang/rust, ocaml/ocaml, rust-lang/miri), 6 contributions lack file-level quality samples (coverage context only, not a penalty) — you’ve landed real commits in high-star projects, even if the volume is thin.
Community influence2.4/88 followers, 27 following — you follow 3x as many people as follow you, a ratio that screams “follower filter” energy with zero community pull.
Activity authenticity14.7/17674 contributions last year, 3 activity types, last activity 18 days ago, no bot or farming signals — you’re actually writing code, just not building anything anyone cares about.

Red flags

  • Zero stars across all 6 original repositories, including your most active personal project (zankyo, a TypeScript rhythm game) which has no public traction whatsoever.
  • 9 of your 15 most recent merged PRs target your own repositories, meaning nearly two-thirds of your recent visible contribution activity is self-serve work with no external impact.
  • 4 of your 15 recent merged PRs are trivial (single-line fixes, copyright additions) and 3 are doc-like, making up nearly half of your recent merged PR sample.
  • Your external PR portfolio includes trivial fixes to high-star projects (ocaml/ocaml, travitch/whole-program-llvm, fluid-cloudnative/fluid) that read more like resume padding than meaningful engineering work.
  • You follow 27 accounts but only have 8 followers, a 3:1 following-to-follower ratio with no evidence of community influence.

Score calibration No extra adjustment. The base score already captures your thin original project traction, low community influence, and mixed external contribution quality — no rule violations or missed qualitative signals warranted a bump or haircut.

Verdict Normal, unremarkable open-source participant. You’re not a bot, not a farming account, and you’ve landed real commits in respected projects, but you’ve spent 5 years building a GitHub presence with no original project traction, no community pull, and a contribution record split between self-serve tweaks and trivial external fixes. You’re not hurting anyone, but you’re also not making waves.
