After the ranking algorithm change to the Trending page, I found I basically stopped using it (I lived on that page before the change), I found I'm more likely to find cool projects/libraries/etc here.
- tetris11 4y agoThe rewrite was horrible. I remember before how you could find interesting projects from random developers with growing communities. Now it's side-project X from reknowned developer N, or the newly created repo from some known tech firm that somehow has 100 stars already. All the actual fresh meat got dried out. I lost interest after the rewrite.

"Trending" on social sites always seems to translate to, "here is popular thing that should become more popular because it's already popular." The extreme preference for externally mediated measures of status never fails to amuse me.
