I would be nice when a user can customize their profile via a special repos `README.md`. This [feature](https://dev.to/github/10-standout-github-profile-readmes-h2o) landed in GitHub some days ago. This feature would be nice to have, because people can customize their profiles. See my [GitHub profile](https://github.com/tonka3000) as example ## Solution Create a repo which has the same name as the username. Display the content of the `README.md` below user data on the profile page `https://<gitlabinstance>/<username>` ## Implementation This feature was delivered in 14.5. Documentation is here: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/profile/#add-details-to-your-profile-with-a-readme
