Github recently added the option to create a README that will show on your profile page, like a more customizable description. My readme looks as ...

This is mine 😁
Wonderful, I wasn't expecting this lol! Funny stuff, can't wait to stumble across more of these in the wild xD
Uh, I love easter eggs like that
I appreciate them as well, makes you feel cool if you find them xD.
Maximum people knows it now
Thanks for taking the time to explain it.
Not every feature is for everybody, that's for sure.
I somewhat agree with you, the more I see how people are using it, myself included, I see that It can be quite obtrusive and can remove focus from repositories and the profile in general if done incorrectly. I see it more as an "extended description" more than a personal site like GitHub pages.
Yup, and up to us (the readers) to voluntarily navigate to it, the new profile README is on your face from the moment you access someone's profile.
I love them!!
Still trying to figure out what to make mine look like, but I love how much you can do with it.
I have had a number of examples responded to in my post. @nombrekeff thanks for sharing yours!
🤓 What's on your GitHub Profile

Anyone else reading here drop by and 🙌 share your profile.
I also like it quite a bit. I'm also figuring it out at the moment but I think I'll wait and get some inspiration from the ones people post over on your post.
There are so many good ones, I keep tweaking mine from new inspiration.
Me too, it's looking great for now, I'm waiting for the dark theme though :/
Go check out the extension Dark Reader. It automatically makes websites dark, and works great in most cases, including GitHub. There’s also more than one mode, so if one doesn’t work for a specific website, you can try one of the others.
Nice, I knew about these tools but never thought of using one. I will check it out.
Like I said in the long feedback message I sent to Github. That's the coolest feature they have made so far. I love the fact that is suuuuper customizable with just markdown.
Here's mine
I went Old Skool
Wow, I Think that this is nice, its a good way to highlight the profile
Definitely, I'm looking forward to seeing what people come up with for their READMEs
I love it!
Great. This was the purpose of this post. Can I ask you the reason?
I checked Waylon's post earlier. And gotta say some of the readme is just too cool to handle. 😍
