I liked the website design very much.
I think there is a bug in pinning Github repos section. If I pin the repo and then I rename it or make it private, profile page still shows it.

Ah I think there's an issue in how we're caching these. Thanks for the tip.

Is there any way so that I can remove such repo from my profile page?

If you remove it via dev.to/settings/integrations I think it should go away, and if you re-save your own profile in the settings that should do it. If not let me know and I can look into this issue further.

I tried but it is not. Integrations page is showing that it is removed but it is not on the profile page.

I like it.

It's clean and simple, without feeling basic. A far cry from a few other sites which blast you with heavy image based backgrounds and endless scrolling past adverts** and the like.

** I believe this is a huge deal for dev.to right now. The lack of advertising sprawled across the website makes for a welcoming and refreshing change. I'm unsure of the future plans but I really liken this to the days before twitter started pushing promotional tweets, facebook became a mess of 80% advert 20% user content and you could surf youtube without being sometimes forced to watch something you had 0 care about.

Even if they're going to implement some ads in the future, I think they'll do it in a smart way, I just feel that, maybe they'll create the ads themselves so they won't be annoying and may be even interesting.
For me, I always use AdBlock and it saves me a lot of ads headaches.
