Sounds like a possible GitHub account glitch. Try signing out and back in, then re-verify your email and visibility settings. If the issue persists, contact GitHub Support
— they can check if your account is flagged or stuck in a sync issue.

Hey, I understand how frustrating it is when your contributions don't show up properly on your profile. This is actually a common issue with a few different potential causes. Let me break down what might be happening and how to fix it.

Why Contributions Might Not Show:

1. Email Configuration Mismatch - This is the most common culprit. Your commits need to be authored with an email address that's verified on your GitHub account. Even if you see activity in your calendar, the stats won't count unless the email matches.

2. Repository Settings - Contributions only count from repositories that aren't forks (unless you're the owner), and the repo must have activity on the default branch.

3. Time Zone Issues - GitHub uses UTC for contribution tracking, so there can be delays of up to 24 hours before stats update properly.

Specific Steps to Fix:

1. Check your commit email: Run git config user.email in your terminal. Make sure this email is listed and verified in your GitHub Settings → Emails.

2. Verify email addresses: Go to Settings → Emails and confirm all emails associated with your commits are verified. You can also enable "Keep my email addresses private" and use GitHub's noreply email.

3. Review commit authorship: Sometimes commits don't link to your account even if the email is correct. You can check by viewing the commit on GitHub - if your username isn't linked, the email configuration is wrong.

About the Follow Issue:

The follow button reverting instantly is definitely unusual and suggests a potential account restriction or bug. This could indicate:

• Your account may be flagged for unusual activity (even if unintentional)
• A temporary rate limit issue
• A genuine platform bug

Since you're experiencing both issues simultaneously, I'd recommend contacting GitHub Support directly at https://support.github.com/. They can check if there's any account-level issue preventing proper functionality.

In the meantime, keep committing - even if stats aren't updating immediately, once the issue is resolved, your contribution history should populate correctly.

Hope this helps!
