GitHub Cleanup

I decided to clean up my GitHub profile. And, well… boy oh boy — the amount of “good” stuff I discovered there (not).

I always knew I had an absurd number of dead repositories. But it felt like: they’re not bothering anyone, I don’t have to pay for them — why not? Let them sit there.
But now I realized something simple: if someone visits my profile today, they don’t see who I am now — they see a pile of nonsense from the past.

Old repositories, some of them 8 years old.
No README.
No explanation of what they are, why they exist, or whether they even work.
Dead code that probably can’t even be run locally anymore.

A bunch of tutorial follow-ups — projects without context, without meaning, without a story. They say nothing about my current skills or how I think. They only say one thing: that I’m messy in my own small personal drawer.

So I decided: enough.

I started going through my repositories one by one and asking myself a very simple question — does it still make sense to keep this?
Will I ever realistically need it again?
Does it say anything about who I am today?

The answer was pretty brutal.

About 80% of my repositories will never be useful to me again.
What they really are is just memories of my journey into programming.

And that’s completely okay.
It’s nice to remember.
It’s fun to look back at the nonsense I used to write.
It’s interesting to see how I thought about myself at the time.

But a cluttered garage full of old tools I’ll never use again doesn’t help me move forward.
It needs to be cleaned.

It’s time to throw out what only takes up space.
Even if that space isn’t really mine.
