Hey Stuart,
Thanks for reaching out! For performance reasons, we only show 25 organizations on your profile, as you mentioned.
I can see how it would be great to be able to choose which organizations appear on your profile, and I'll pass this on to our team to consider! I can't promise if or when we would add that, though.
Let me know if you have any questions!
Cheers, Antonio GitHub Support
woa, how did you get so many? :-)
I create a new organization every time I start a project that calls for its own organizational structure - @ghes, for instance. (This also makes it smoother to hand off maintainership down the line. Frankly, I think everybody should do it.)
Actually, I'm not sure if this is a new GitHub feature, or if it's a side-effect of my number of public organizations having just gone over the limit for organizations on a single API page (30).
In any case, I've built a userscript to work around this (though it doesn't handle multiple pages of results yet, nor does it handle self-authentication): https://github.com/ghes/user-org-uncapper
This is a new development: the number of organizations I see when I go to https://github.com/stuartpb stops after the twenty-fifth organization I'm a member of.
I use my organization list as a rough catalog of which projects I am working on, and where I'm looking for contributors: not being able to see the organizations my newer projects is a significant handicap. I don't necessarily mind if I can't present all of these organizations on my profile's front page; however, I'd like to have the option to choose which organizations I'm a member of are displayed on that page (rather than just having them arbitrarily capped by age), with a link to the complete list (much like how I can customize my list of "pinned" repositories).
