starred VS star-history

Starred can help with that.

I have some questions about the Github Star history, it's very unusual to see a ~1 year old with 20k+ stars.

It went from 6k to 15k+ stars in a few days around 2023 Christmas when global internet traffic is usually lowest, and I couldn't find any major social media posts or announcements around that time. If you're gonna buy stars don't buy 10k+ stars on one day, spread it out a bit!

That’s a great project you pulled off. From the time I starred it (10-12h ago I think), and upon re-checking this post, you gained 500+ stars lol.

You can actively see a fresh "hype curve" in the transformer-debugger repo that was posted a couple days ago (https://github.com/openai/transformer-debugger) (star history https://star-history.com/#openai/transformer-debugger&Date).

Regardless of the repo's stars or how valuable it really is, at the time I saw it posted to HN, it had 1.6k stars/16 hours. What channel are people listening to to star it so quickly. I'm not implying any nefariousness, mind you, I'm only wondering where all the stargazers were referred from so fast and in such volume.

I’ve been releasing open-source projects for years now, and I’ve always wanted to see how fast my Github repo is growing compared to other successful repositories on https://star-history.com/. The problem is that on Star History, I’m unable to zoom into the graph, so a new repo that has 1,000 stars cannot be compared with a big repo that has 50,000 because you can’t see how the bigger repo does in its beginning. So, I asked GPT Pilot to build this functionality. It scrapes Github repos for stargazers, saves them into the database, plots them on a graph, and enables the graph to be zoomed in and out.

Similar to http://star-history.com for GitHub repos, http://like-history.ai is a tool to help generate the like history of projects on HuggingFace.co
