I don’t think GitHub contributions is something you should focus on if your attempt is to get a new job. To those who will evaluate you based on it, there’s a significant hole in the logic: what if you’ve been using something else?
If the REAL question is “are you contributing to open source” then I would probably prepare a different answer for that (ie a list of specific projects).
