option to disable or hide contribution activity on the profile page #142

Seconded! Particularly given that it's typically incorrect. All of the "contributions" for my project Satori, when added together, are nearly 200, when there are only 75 commits in reality. |
|
👎 from me :) |
|
Yes please. This is highly creepy. - edit - |
|
I think all my activities (commits, PR) are all privacy, it's creepy that anyone can watch you're doing recently, we users should be able to choose hidden or limit display them. |
|
Yeah, this is super creepy. It essentially means that before I contribute to a project, even to submit an issue, I have to think about the implication if an employer were to see that association. This is not at all OK. |
|
It's now September, and github doesn't allow users to hide their activity. Bitbucket can hide profile. Why not Github? |
Yeah, I know how you feel. But I'll contribute to other projects anyway. |
|
Because it's Github, that's all. |
|
Thanks I'll try bitbucket. Like many developers, I'm not a social/extraverted person. I just need a place to host my code, maybe interact with a few like minded people, but definately not share my nerdy status updates with the whole world. I otherwise like Github, it's designed professionally - none of that metro/mobile-first BS. But you have no respect for privacy... |
|
Fair point: this does not make any information public that wasn't public before, yes? This list just aggregates into one place information that was already publicly accessible? Anything submitted to private repositories or otherwise non-public information isn't leaked by this, correct? |
|
👍 |
|
Is this issue still open? |
|
Yes, it is opened. I think that GitHub should open an account on uservoice (their customer) so New Feature Requests would be ranked and priorized. |

Hope to get an answer |
|
+1 Privacy is important and being able to control what appears on your own profile page should be completely basic by now. |

+1, Why is this issue not addressed yet. |
|
+1 this is ridiculous. I have moved all my private projects to b***** .. cough, to a different place. There I can have some privacy. |

|
I have taken the liberty to migrate this issue to the proper Github's feedback channel. |
|
Quick notice: On the new discussions page, you need to press the upvote button, not just 👍 |
|
Done! |

Went looking for a way to apply some privacy to my profile page. Found this instead. Sheesh. This is some facebook level creepy. +1 OP. |
|
it's been like 9 years |
|
Ok maybe THIS will have an effect, petition: http://chng.it/JnHxhxdYBR |
|
GitHub, fix it finally!! |
For everyone who wants GitHub to notice/fix this, go here ^ and upvote it. GitHub does not search these pages. |
|
Bump |
|
Please give us an option. So we can decide which 'contribution activity' to show or hide. |
|
I deleted all my code from GitHub because of this. Now I use gitee.com. 中华人民共和国万岁。 |
Oh, 你可真是个小机灵鬼 |
Why make fun against chinese? even tho i'm not chinese, i hate to see someone to make fun of it |

and others
i don't like it. i don't want people to be able to crawl that info, either, even through an API. it gets spammy when you make a lot of typo commits, PR merges, or open a lot of issues.
i don't mind the activity tab, but being able to see what people have done over the past year on any given date is creepy.
what i would really like is the two columns of
popular repositoriesandrepositories contributed toto be really long. way more interesting IMO. therepositoriestab requires too much scrolling.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
