The title is somewhat misleading and makes it seem like this is a GitHub company initiative rather than a project just hosted on GitHub.
I've not seen this title format on HN before. Could it be changed?
- jtokoph 5y agoThe title is the actual value of the title html tag on the page
- roblabla 5y agoHeh, that's interesting: When you're logged in, the title tag changes to drop the "GitHub -" prefix.
- tim-- 5y agoSEO strikes again!
- foobar33333 5y agoConsidering people often search 'github project name' it probably makes sense.
- corobo 5y agoIt could go at the end just as easily like every other site though
- hibbelig 5y agoI think the "nushell/nushell" part makes it clear which repo it is talking about.
- cbolton 5y agoI didn't find it clear, I also thought it was a GitHub project.
- thatsnotmepls 5y agoI found it clear it wasn't a GitHub project.
- andredz 5y agoIt wasn't clear to me that any of the interpretations was, well… clear, and had to check the comments (I could have checked the repo too).
- bee_rider 5y agoThe point of a title is to be obvious to everyone (to the extent possible) -- the fact that we found it obvious doesn't remove their confusion.
- bamboozled 5y agoReally seemed like a GH project to me.
- redmaverick 5y agono.. I didn't find it clear..
- irjustin 5y agoYeah i thought it was like "Github - Atom Editor"....
- corobo 5y agoThat's on GitHub in fairness. Left is logged in. https://cdn.imgy.org/DOyx.png https://cdn.imgy.org/DOyx.png

- s_dev 5y agoI can see the confusion but it didn't confuse me. If it's a GitHub product it would only be a blog post I would expect not actual code ironically.
- tsjq 5y agosame here. I thought it is GitHub project
- redmaverick 5y agoI got excited thinking it was an official Github project.
- thomasahle 5y agoRight. It doesn't seem important where the project is hosted.
- xpe 5y agoI think it is very likely "disagreement" in this thread is simply based on people seeing different titles at different times. There are some possible causes: 1. The submitter may provide an initial title 2. HN moderators may adjust the title 3. GitHub may show different titles based on the user's login status (I'm not sure myself, I'm writing this based on what I read in another part of this thread) Therefore, I make this request of HN commenters: Since titles on HN can change, please quote the exact title that confuses you. More broadly, it may be useful to always quote the text you are responding to.
- laurent123456 5y agoSame, I thought it was a GitHub project. There are often links to GitHub pages on HN and I don't think they generally have the "GitHub" prefix. It's not relevant anyway where the code is hosted.
- mdoms 5y agodang will most certainly change this title when he spots it. I have been tracking HN title changes and they follow a very predictable format.

- thomastjeffery 5y agoNot only is the place the project is hosted totally irrelevant to discussion, it seems like it would make more sense for this post to link the project website (www.nushell.sh/) instead of the GitHub repo.
