You can use the new Fine-grained Personal Access Tokens [1] (as opposed to the original ones, now called "Personal Access Tokens (Classic)". With the fine-grained tokens, you can literally grant this site: - Repository access: none - User permissions: none - Repository permissions: none [Or if you want to be really paranoid, make a burner account... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.] But also, star-history.com is not a random site — the repo [2] has 4k stars and has been around since 2015 and has been popular for over a year. If you've ever tried to make a public app that depends on GitHub APIs, the limits without taking PATs are very, very low — totally insufficient for an app with any popularity, so there's not really an alternative.
