Agreed! The last few that interviewed me noticed I had a Github account and perused the projects just barely afaik- not enough to ask questions about any of it.
Github and any other open source repository you link to are a badge of "I did open source development". What the first page in Github, etc. looks like in that first 0.15 of a second of the 5-10 seconds they spend looking at it may be on average only 2% importance to the hiring decision.
Do NOT stop doing what you want to do or start paring projects down just for looks. Sure maybe it will help, but don't sacrifice your work and what you've done just to look GQ in an attempt to get a job. Instead, try to work on what you do have and make it better.
