  > huh!?? don't they have amplitude to check how many users click that page? Yes!?? Turns out the value is "not enough". I never click on that and have starred no cool projects from there. Seems like a totally reasonable product decision from my seat.

    Seems like a weird decision not to expose this in some capacity. It encourages external crawling and aggregation of content hosted on their site. Seeing that their search feature already produces abysmal results, it only further obfuscates public repositories.
