The blog has so much more advice than what the clickbait title would have you believe.

Can you elaborate?

I click the star on GitHub when I come across a project that doesn't seem immediately worthwhile, but that I might want to check back on in a few years.

I can't imagine caring about how many stars / likes something has.

I will try this out as a tool to manage my private tasks. I always wanted something like Jira for my personal life.

As an alternative to dedicated planning tools, you could try simple journalling to eke through your thinking.

Just create a github repository (privately if you want) and update a README.md file and journal at the end chronologically or reverse chronologically depending on how you think of your journal.

I've been doing this since 2013 and it really helps me get things done.

Because it's the ONE place you go to to plan and see what you need to do, you don't have to remember hundreds of different buckets where information goes and is forgotten. It's all there in one place.

Who would you escalate to if you run out of capacity to wash your dishes in your current sprint? :-)

Joking aside, how would you use this tool for your private tasks?

The article doesn’t rant on that much about stars, and it is a good hustle journey with tips kind of article

That sounds really dystopian. Akin to having a Scrum standup with the kids each morning before school. Do you mean personal programming projects or in general?

No, but using it to remind just adults of the umpteen things that need to be done when you run a household with kids would be smart.
