I love the edit in GH. So much.

Thank you for the work you do and for how much you have contributed to people learning over the years. <3

To reiterate, I don’t know you and don’t assume your intentions—and thus do not judge them. I’m also not familiar with your work but I have no doubt it’s more relevant than whatever “award”.

In other words: it makes zero difference to me what you write in your bio but I can see how its previous wording took away from what’s important.

Apologies for making you feel judged, my comment was meant as the opposite: the point was precisely that “you do you”.

yup no hard feelings. felt defensive heheh. i guess as my career has gone on i've accumulated other stuff but early on the github star thing really did feel like a big deal + if i wasnt gonna plug it on my github readme where else
