Description
### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Self-hosting an instance of the software to circumvent rate limits is restrictive.
### Describe the solution you'd like
I played around with the Github App API in a project as a POC [here](https://github.com/khosbilegt/github-to-mermaid). Creating a github-readme-stats Github App and allowing users to authenticate with their Github user could be a better flow than self-hosting an exact copy.
Don't know if there are any technical concerns relating to costs, but it could be doable.
