Add GitHub with Social links on Blog

[bolotskydev]

Can we add a GitHub button to the social with github.com/neondatabase/neon as a link?

Hey @raoufchebri, can you provide the reasoning behind? 🤔 I'd like to think of better way to resolve the problem, because GitHub link isn't a good fit semantically speaking, as the other buttons serve the common Share purpose

@raoufchebri ping on this

Hi @bolotskydev . GitHub stars are more valuable than social media follows at the moment. We want to encourage people to star us on GitHub.

I see why is it important, thank you!
However, usually people expect a certain set of actions regarding social share buttons block in Blog, and by putting in Star on GH functionality you break the expectation, kind tricking them into not-strictly-related action.
Let us see if the CTA can be integrated more natively

Archiving this - feels become irrelevant due to redesign of the blog. We have Github extra link on a left sidebar on index/category pages. For posts where we need extra attention to Github we have a dedicated lazy-block on Wordpress that you can put in any part of the content.
