Make it more obvious that the homu github user is a bot #85

It's not readily apparent to those not already familiar with homu that the homu github user is a bot. The github user page doesn't provide a link to homu.io, the avatar is not of a robot (this usually makes it obvious), there's no "bot" string in the username etc.

Something should be done to make this more obvious to prevent confusion.

:+1:

We've also had multiple (!) occasions of casual contributors thanking homu for letting them know that their PR had conflicts that needed fixing, which is a bit embarrassing all around. (I'd really rather not be making new contributors feel stupid! It does not set the welcoming tone we hope for...)

@njsmith That's absolutely hilarious. :D

Well, yes, that too :-) but once twice was enough I think...
