Personally, I dislike how Gists are so isolated. I just created a public test Gist and can’t seem to find a way to navigate to it when I view my GitHub profile from a private browser session. From my Gists profile there is a “View GitHub Profile” button, but I do not see a button to do the reverse.

I think adding a “Gists” tab to GitHub profiles would be a nice way to increase accessibility and exposure.

Additionally, I think that edits to a Gist should count as contributions. The current arrangement disincentives those who are concerned with contribution counts.

Searching your own gists is harder than search for a public one. I think it might be easier to make a gist repo and use comments for gists or the inline editor.

I know the gh cli tool helped me find some stuff a lot easier than pointy-clicky through the UI. Maybe it would work for this use case?

Great suggestion!

USAGE gh gist <command> [flags]

CORE COMMANDS create: Create a new gist delete: Delete a gist edit: Edit one of your gists list: List your gists view: View a gist

TiL, will check it out

Agreed. That's where I was hoping Obsidian would be helpful in terms of providing a way to tag/index individual gists.

I agree that there is a disconnect between Github repos and Gists. Unifying them with Github profiles would probably increase both the visibility and adoption (particularly if they were listed with your repos).
