I've recently created another account on GitHub to host stuff that I didn't want to associate with my main account. I've used an email address under my domain name and verified it and everything went well. I was able to create repositories, push code, set up an SSH key, edit my profile and so on.
But then if I try to open the account profile or any of the repositories while not logged in, GitHub just acts as if the account doesn't exist and returns a 404.
I tried again a month later and the same issue persisted. I've seen other people complaining about the same issue, for example, in this reddit thread.
Clarifications
- My profile is not set to private.
- My repositories are set to public.
- This is not a "machine account", it is a normal user account with no relationship to my main account, it is created manually as a normal account from a separate computer, with a different email address.
