Remove repository from Top Repositories on start page

[giorgi02]

Hello,

There is a repository in Top Repositories section on my startup page.

It has appeared since I wrote a new issue in its issues.
This repository is not mine and also, I'm not a collaborator. It is not shown in "my repositories" and neither on "settings/repositories".
Why is it shown at startup and how can I remove it?

Hi @giorgi02,

I can't find a way to remove it. So, I guess there is no way to do that. In my opinion, once you have done any things like submit an issue, fork or contribute or any things. It save there as history. It doesn't matter if you close your issue on that repo.

Have you solved it yet？

These are autogenerated based on your activity, however, if you'd like to submit product feedback on this I encourage you to open a Discussion in our Feed category.

A repository with no actitivity, archived is still #3 since months. This doesn't work as expected.

[TharunMJ]

What steps should a user follow to submit product feedback in the Feed category?

[jeffsnff]

Any movement on this? I would really love to remove stuff from that section.

Could be very nice to have such feature

[jonoringer]

agree!!

[copeland3300]

It would be great to have this...especially since it's not even accurate. I have repos listed here that haven't been touched in weeks or months, but repos that have more activity and more recent activity aren't shown.

[playbahn]

Yeap. Same here.

[gileli121]

How is this basic thing not implemented?
I was assuming that maybe it was only me that couldn't find it.
But seems that you did not implement it. Unbelievable!

This would be an useful feature indeed.

It is freakishly surprising this thread was started over 2 years ago and still no guaranteed solution to a seemingly irrational and mysterious user interface feature and function. Baffling! 😕

[sabi-31]

This has been a constant annoyance to me, glad to see I'm not the only one. Please fix this github.

[izmyname]

I can't understand - why an option to remove entries from 'Top repositories' wasn't implemented, in the first place.

[WillTheFarmer]

GitHub's lack of concern would be more understandable if this was some obscure feature. This feature is on every GitHub user Dashboard. Feeling hinky about the whole situation... very hinky!

[gooker]

Only after using cursor did I realize the significant gap between it and copilot. This also reflects why this issue has not been resolved for so long. It's really because they're not putting in the effort

This feature may be useful for some people, however, it is clearly annoying for others and we should at a minimum have an option to disable it so that these random repos stop showing up in our 'top repositories' section. Thanks!

[WillTheFarmer]

I am not sure how it is useful to anyone. There is a repository still listed on mine which I have not been on since the day I started on GitHub. I have been and interacted with many other repositories that are not on the list. It is worthless and degrading to the GitHub image.

A solution (or at least a workaround) that worked for me was going to the Settings page, then clicking on the "Repositories" item within the "Code, planning, and automation" section, and finally clicking "Leave" on the pertinent repositories. You will continue as a contributor/having access to the repository but at least it'll stop showing on the "Top Repositories" list.

Again, not a proper solution but could work for some of us...

I deleted this section through an ad blocker, although I would like to customize it for myself by selecting only relevant repositories and adjusting the order. This solution may be suitable for you.
