Highly dependent on how I got to the repo. If I know what repo I want and am going directly to it, sure. If I'm looking at lots of repos that match a search (either on GH or somewhere else), say... looking for a library that does a thing and there are many choices, the first thing I'm going to look at probably isn't the readme. More important in those cases for filtering out the chaff are date of last commit and the issues board, looking for signs of life rather than signs of abandonment.
