The list of top repositories is automatically generated, and can include any repository you have interacted with, whether it's owned directly by your account or not. Interactions include making commits and opening or commenting on issues and pull requests. The list of top repositories cannot be edited, but repositories will drop off the list 1 year after you last interacted with them.

The feed is designed to help you discover relevant content from projects you follow, keep up with your friends and community members, and track recent activity in your communities.
You can use the **{% octicon "filter" aria-hidden="true" aria-label="filter" %} Filter** dropdown in the upper right corner to filter the feed to show only the exact event types you'd like to see. For example, you'll see updates when someone you follow:

* Creates a public repository
* Opens an issue or pull request with `help wanted` or `good first issue` label on a repository you're watching
* Pushes commits to a repository you watch
* Forks a public repository
