It seems quite inconvenient to use.

One of the posts is just a raspberri pi picture. You have to go to the "source" to get what it's actually about. The whole idea of pinterest and co is that you can browse lots of content just by swiping, not by having to click through on each one.

Maybe add a link to the source on the Cards themselves, saving a useless page load, or expand inline somehow?

Agreed, I would expect to go straight to the source upon clicking on a card. However I do like the idea just some UX improvements could make this site.

The general idea is pretty cool. The main question is probably what the images should link to and what images to use for contributions that don't have a dedicated page (just github). I think the default link should be to the code but links to videos or overview pages are also fine.

I think the idea is generally a good one, people can post cool stuff they work on and it can even be a good source of inspiration for non-programmers or people only loosely interested (I'm thinking of journalists, teachers, parents and curious youngsters answering the question "what cool stuff can be done with technology"). Could also have some job market/finding employees implications (maybe a possible monetization route?).
