"used by" section disappeared from my home page

[antoine-coulon]

Hello everyone,

Just wondering why my used by section on my skott is not showing up anymore since few weeks. I didn't change anything particular in the repository configuration. Also in Code security & analysis > Dependency graph menus I don't have the dropdown to select a specific package like this is shown in the documentation.

Can anyone help me troubleshoot that please?

Thanks

Contacted support on 11/23 regarding this issue. Their reply is below.

Thank you for contacting GitHub support. GitHub recently changed it so the Used by section will only show on repositories where the selected package has at least 100 dependents, as documented here.

@nuxy thanks a lot that explains why it disappeared, my project has nearly 30 used by only.

I felt like it was valuable even though still a small number, but fair enough now I know why :)

Thanks for the help!

I wonder what sparked that change. Seeing the "Used by" for my small library always cheered me up a little :)
