Show HN: githero.es - Nominate and Vote for your personal GitHub heroes
- caiusdurling 15y agoDidn't vote because it asks for permission to update my profile info and repository's as well as reading my public data. Can't see why it would need anything but read-access to my github profile.
- iamclovin 15y agoDidn't realize that. Fixed now to only have read-only scope. Edit: Obviously, we aren't going to do anything malicious with your data too, but apologies for the oversight.
- caiusdurling 15y agoThanks for fixing. Didn't think you would've done anything with it, but I prefer to boycott apps that ask for more than they need just in case. :-)

- Hovertruck 15y agoThis page could benefit greatly from any sort of explanation. What should my criteria be? Also consider either changing the "Nominate" form to an actual <form> or adding a keypress event on the button so that I can submit by pressing enter.
- iamclovin 15y agoGood points - as for criteria - this is just a fun little app we did over New Years weekend to give us coders a way to say thanks to our personal GitHub heroes. Will fix the form issue.
- rplnt 15y agoWhen I open the page from here (either foreground or background) it closes immediately. Works fine if opened in new tab. Opera 11.60, no extensions, Windows 7 x64, logged in to github
- iamclovin 15y agoWoops was a stupid bug, fixed now, thanks!
- obtu 15y agoGithub is convenient and all, but for a popularity contest like that couldn't you accept just any email/account url? Or Ohloh committers, which are looked up in a number of forges?
- danecjensen 15y agoinstead of voting for someone why would you not just follow them on github. that is essentially a vote.
