I would love more discoverability for Github - but can't help but think this doesn't reflect what is "trending". Github does, fairly accurate, show what's trending - I think it's just that trends in software development can fatigue and annoy a lot of developers.
From what I understand, creating an algorithm to reflect what is active/popular/well-supported and well-contributed, without creating the over-saturation/bubbling/reddit-like effect is hard to do, and doesn't necessarily get easier with a large data set.
I hope someone more clever than myself can come up with something, though!
