I see this so often, but I don’t understand it. Some people just fork a huge amount of repos and never commit anything to them. What’s the point? Are they trying to pad their profile for potential employers or what?

It just clutters your active repos. Personally, I just remove forks once my PR gets merged upstream. And I only fork when I’m ready to push a commit.

Is there something I’m missing?

    In my case, it’s a TODO list. But often, life gets in between and I forget.
