Public GitHub profile returns 404 for everyone except me

[feq4n]

My GitHub account is accessible when I'm signed in, but my public profile returns 404 for everyone else. The username is feq4n. I can create repositories and use my account normally, but https://github.com/feq4n and the GitHub API return 404 when accessed publicly. Could you check if my account has been flagged or if there is a visibility issue?

yo i just checked from outside your login:

• https://github.com/feq4n → 200 OK for me
• API users/feq4n returns your profile fine (public, 21 repos, name Feqan Gerayli)

so right now your public profile is not 404ing. either github fixed whatever flag/glitch it was, or whatever was caching the 404 on your friends' side went stale.

quick things for anyone still seeing 404:

1. hard refresh / different browser / phone data (not wifi)
2. make sure they're hitting https://github.com/feq4n exactly (typo / old username)
3. if you still see yourself fine but strangers 404, have them try the API: https://api.github.com/users/feq4n — if that works, it's a frontend/cache weirdness on their end

if it starts 404ing publicly again for everyone including logged-out you, then yeah that's account/flag territory → open a support ticket. but as of this comment, the account looks publicly visible.
