Request for help: We lost all our GitHub stars in one click, please re-star us

Hey everyone, we were doing some repo admin and briefly changed the visibility of the repo from public -&gt; private and back to public, then discovered in horror that we lost ALL the github stars and forks! Googling suggests that others have ran into this issue too and github is not able to restore it (see <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.qovery.com&#x2F;blog&#x2F;we-lost-3800-stars-on-github-in-1-click" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.qovery.com&#x2F;blog&#x2F;we-lost-3800-stars-on-github-in-...</a>).<p>Could you help us by starring our repo and perhaps spread the word? Would really mean a lot! <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;useVenice&#x2F;venice">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;useVenice&#x2F;venice</a><p>PSA: Never change a public repo to private, not even for a moment, because doing so means you will irreversibly lose ALL your github stars and forks, there is no going back! :(
