I am experiencing this issue too, but based on the message, I think it will resolve itself.

When there is a lot of traffic to the Heroku server, the GitHub API seems to stop sending back content and the responses become very slow. If it takes too long to load, GitHub will just show a broken image instead of waiting. GitHub also caches responses on their server, so even if the speed gets back to normal, it could still show as broken on GitHub for a particular image URL for up to a few hours.

To avoid this issue, I recommend self-hosting the project. There are steps in the readme, I recently added a new method for deploying with Vercel entirely online. It's free and shouldn't take more than a couple minutes to set up.

It should also start working on its own, but there isn't much I can do to prevent it from going down in the future while hosting for over 100,000 people for free*, so self-hosting is still an option to get it to stay up more reliably.

* Scaling up to use multiple processes seems to resolve the issue but this costs about $50/month and since the project does not make any money for me and I'm not making that much from sponsorships I'd rather keep it at the lowest pricing tier. If I get at least $25/month in sponsorships, I'd keep the server scaled up.

@DenverCoder1 irt shows public repo streak not private ones

your account you see image

and your acc in incognito mode image

so you all can try making your private repo public then it might work!
