🔥 Full roast
🔥 309k followers, zero following, one single repo hits 237k stars, 83% of his 72 merged PRs land on core dive software code, even libgit2 clone fixes come with 39 test files, 14955 commits all dumped in
torvalds — 90.60/100 · 夯 (封神 · 殿堂级标杆)
TL;DR: Linus Torvalds’ GitHub profile is a near-perfect, zero-farming benchmark of open source impact, anchored by the Linux kernel and backed by genuine cross-project contributions.

🔥 Roast: With 237,660 stars on the Linux kernel, 308,980 followers, and a following count of exactly 0, you’re the ultimate anti-farmer of GitHub: no star padding, no PR spam, no follow-begging, just the single most impactful codebase in open source history under your name. Those 4 trivial PRs to Subsurface? Just a casual hobby to pass the time between shepherding the software that runs 90% of the internet’s infrastructure.
