Lots of wasted white space; too few items visible above the fold
From 3 comments
Cool project but way too much white space: I only see two items above the fold on my Macbook Pro. It would be a lot easier to use if it was more information dense. (e.g.…
olalonde on HNSo much wasted space. And the mouse-over animations are quite annoying.

Only shows GitHub repositories despite Reddit and HN in the title
From 3 comments
Sure but in practice there aren't any entries from Reddit or HN. They are all from Github.
IshKebab on HNThis makes so much more sense. I was thinking it was trying to show a collection of trending item from GitHub, Reddit, and Hacker News. I was confused when everything I was…

Questions
How is the trending aggregation made and what does it measure?
From 2 comments
What does "trending repositories from [...] HackerNews and Reddit" mean? How is the aggregation made?
throwawaylolx on HNI assume its using reddit api to find trending links to git(hub?) repositories.

Alternatives named
github.com/trending
From 2 comments
How is this different to github.com/trending?
IshKebab on HNI don't know why Github "hides" the trending link behind a Profile. To see the Trending link, you must go through the "explore" link first. I found it's very inconvenient for…
