Many Hacktoberfest issues shown on the website were created in collection repos. Collection repos are repos where their only purpose is to get easy 4 PRs for Hacktoberfest by contributing random code snippets to the repo. These repos are excluded from Hacktoberfest. It's very annoying to scroll through these issues from collection repos because there are so many of them compared to issues from legit repos.
I would like to have an option to filter out as many issues from collection repos as possible. I think one solution is to filter out repos based on the repos' name so their issues won't be shown with the filter on. This would probably remove most of the issues from collection repos and keep issues to display from legit repos.
Here are some keywords that I think would be good for the filter:
Hi @huyszn

I am thing of different path to get the ineligible repos from organizers and filter them out.

I know that there are some legit repos (like this one) that have Hacktoberfest included in their name so this is why it's an option.
