I’m looking for something like GitHub’s user activity indicator that gathers information from a list of git repositories regardless of where they are hosted (as long as they are public), that I can put on my webpage, kind of as a thing to show what I’m working on at the moment.

Is this a thing that already exists? I’d started writing one a while ago but instead of reviving that it would be great if there’s something that already exists and I can just use :^)

    Probably not, since Git is federated and decentralized. There are no git “accounts”. Git asks for your name and email but those are basically meaningless unless the repository hosting platform does something with them like ties them to an account identity.

    You could maybe use the GitHub activity view by also mirroring your projects from elsewhere onto GH

      There don’t have to be, it would be completely fine just filtering commits by author email. Or maybe even signing key.
