When you delete your account, any submissions you made (e.g. PRs) get a little ghost icon on #GitHub

That means there's the *perfect* hashtag slogan for leaving this mess behind: #GhostGitHub

Let's make this A Thing, yes?

Haven't used #GitHub other than for accessing other source code for months now, and the current event gave me the push to delete both the @interpeer org and my personal profile.

If your project is only using GitHub, please consider migrating.
