Thanks a lot for the feedback! I agree with you, having to keep tabs with thousands of new services is annoying. In that case though, you shouldn't have to worry about missing some users' feedback. That's why you have to register your project with FeatHub before people can give feedback (we temporarily enabled anonymous import to boostrap the service, but that won't last). This way, as a repo owner, you know you have enabled FeatHub. Also, it's not implemented now, but we could imagine notifying owners on a regular basis. I suggested the improvement there: http://feathub.com/feathub/feathub/+8 http://feathub.com/feathub/feathub/+8

The pattern of "Oh, sure, we're associated with that project" is a very dark one. "Contribute to something on GitHub off of GitHub" has been used by a number of hard-to-verify bitcoin tip sites, recruiter schemes, and shadier characters. I hope featurehub goes opt-in very soon so it can avoid a noisy argument like this one that made it to HN last October: https://github.com/tip4commit/tip4commit/issues/127 https://github.com/tip4commit/tip4commit/issues/127

  Oh, I hadn't seen this. That's very interesting, thanks for the pointer. I'll fix this ASAP.

    That's a better, faster response than I have ever seen to this topic. I wish HN let me post a happy animated GIF to celebrate your choice!

      I'm glad that it DOES NOT support gifs.

    Done! Now you have to own a project on GitHub to be able to add it on FeatHub :)
