I tried with https://github.com/racket/racket and for some reason it puts all the content of the subfolder "racket"/"src" in a vertical strip near the middle of the circle instead of spreading the parts evenly. How is each part arranged?

interesting! I'm seeing them grouped in the middle. It's a tricky layout, using d3.js's circle packing algorithm, then recursively using a force layout to relax each folder's contents.

It's a strange directory because it mix the old and the new implementation of Racket. But IIUC you are not looking at the internal content of the files, only the size. Perhaps you can fill a bug report in the d3.js package. (I'm not sure it's a bug, or just a very weird case.)

In the part that says "direct link to your own repository" you can add a link icon for people (like me) that doesn't read all the text. (I was going to suggest that as a feature, but looking again I found it.)

I also added it after your first comment so might have snuck it by you ;) I'm curious what it is that you're seeing, if you have the chance to leave an image!

It would be nice that if I have chosen a repo above, the link includes that repo instead of the default one.
