In the "Recent activity" section of your news feed, you can quickly find and follow up with recently updated issues and pull requests you're working on.

## Finding your top repositories and teams

![Screenshot of the navigation bar on {% data variables.product.github %}. The "Open global navigation menu" icon is outlined in dark orange.](/assets/images/help/navigation/global-navigation-menu-icon.png)

The list of top repositories is automatically generated, and can include any repository you have interacted with, whether it's owned directly by your account or not. Interactions include making commits and opening or commenting on issues and pull requests. The list of top repositories cannot be edited, but repositories will drop off the list 1 year after you last interacted with them.

## About permissions levels for a personal account repository

Repositories owned by personal accounts have one owner. Ownership permissions can't be shared with another personal account.

You can also {% ifversion fpt or ghec %}invite{% else %}add{% endif %} users to your repository as collaborators. For more information, see [AUTOTITLE](/account-and-profile/setting-up-and-managing-your-personal-account-on-github/managing-access-to-your-personal-repositories/inviting-collaborators-to-a-personal-repository).

> [!TIP]
> If you require more granular access to a repository owned by your personal account, consider transferring the repository to an organization. For more information, see [AUTOTITLE](/repositories/creating-and-managing-repositories/transferring-a-repository#transferring-a-repository-owned-by-your-personal-account).

## Owner access for a repository owned by a personal account

The repository owner has full control of the repository. In addition to the actions that any collaborator can perform, the repository owner can perform the following actions.
Repositories owned by personal accounts have a single owner who has full control of the repository. In addition to the actions that any collaborator can perform, the repository owner can perform the following actions.

## Removing a collaborator
### Access after removing a collaborator

While forks of private repositories are deleted when a collaborator is removed, the person will still retain any local clones of your repository.

When you remove a collaborator from your project, they lose read/write access to your repository. If the repository is private and the person has created a fork, then that fork is also deleted.
