There is a certain repository that has been forked by many tens of users. However most of them are inactive. The ones that are still active will probably have n commits ahead of master. However when I click on fork I can see all the users that forked but I cannot select the ones that are active.
Is there a way to see who's active or who has commits ahead of master?

To sync your forked repo with the parent or central repo on GitHub you: Create a pull request on GitHub.com to update your fork of the repository from the original repository, and. Run the git pull command in the terminal to update your local clone.
GitHub has now introduced a feature to sync a fork with the click of a button. Go to your fork, click on Fetch upstream , and then click on Fetch and merge to directly sync your fork with its parent repo. You may also click on the Compare button to compare the changes before merging.
Most commonly, forks are used to either propose changes to someone else's project to which you do not have write access, or to use someone else's project as a starting point for your own idea. You can fork a repository to create a copy of the repository and make changes without affecting the upstream repository.
No, you can't hide the repository from your public profile.
You can click on the Insights tab (next to Issues and Pull requests) and you will see a sidebar on the left.
Then click on Network. You will see the most active forks there.
For example: https://github.com/cyverse/clank/network
