Popularity on GitHub can open valuable doors for developers and startups. Underground stores sell “stars” on the platform, offering coders a way to literally fake it till they make it.
And advancements wise - any actually good developer doesn’t really have a problem getting a good job
True, but I’d assume developers who are actually good also don’t buy stars on Github. Sadly, the demand on the market over the last five to ten years meant that everyone with a udemi course in react could get job as a developer. Now that the economy does not look all that rosy, that is changing and people are looking for new ways to “boost” their CVs.
