I guess at some point developers will have to prove they're serious developers by exposing their GitHub profile.
replyEdit: it's part of your profile already, better vibe code some random ideas to farm some GitHub dev credibility.
I don't think a github profile (or any specific activity therein) should be a prerequisite for being considered a 'serious developer'.
