Firstly, I really love github explore. Having said that I still have yet to feel the need for one of these services that blindsides me with content just because I forgot I need it.

I understand that it drives more traffic to the site, but is it really worth saving the time of typing https://github.com/explore?

I guess that's the reason it's opt-in. Some people want "push" some people want "pull".

Personally, I intentionally keep my incoming stream very lean. I like aggregators like this, Ruby Weekly, JS Weekly, etc.

I'm late to the party - but a few months back I started http://gitat.me specially to highlight useful & interesting repos that don't make it to the trending page.
