But I have always felt I could never discover projects outside of GitHub. Partly because adding GitHub as keyword to your search often gives the best results.
On a project I work on I even push the repository from Gitlab to GitHub just for the exposure.
So a good alternative to GitHub being the de facto open source project discovery site would be nice. That said I don't hate GitHub and I'm happy I can find almost everything I need there.
This application will be able to read and write all public repository data. This includes the following:
Code Issues Pull requests Wikis Settings Webhooks and services Deploy keys
This GH app, for instance, received similar feedback and its author removed the offending scopes without losing functionality: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11261953
feedback: I had a hard time using the site until I whitelisted dozens of third-party css, images, js, cookies, frames and XHRs. The umatrix list is HUGE.
But we already have stars on GitHub.
You could make the same argument for Reddit by saying "But we already have bookmarks on the browser."
If I may make a suggestion, can you tweak the layout/design for a better mobile experience?
I can only read the first three or so words about the repos when scrolling through the list.

I wish github, gitlab, this and other repo related software displayed those by default. Less work, more fun
