That's against the open-source ecosystem spirit, where the number of stars is a measurement of project popularity.
- lone_haxx0r 7y agoThe number of stars means absolutely nothing. I don't understand why people care so much about an insignificant counter in a proprietary platform.
- PascLeRasc 7y agoGithub stars do signify the overall quality and public reception of a project, at least to me. Github doesn't have "sharing"-type social networking functionality to artificially increase the number of stars, so I think it's in a pretty natural place right now and I hope it stays that way.
