Surprised I didn't see my personal favourite mentioned - the unlimited free private repos!

To be fair, GitHub has to make money.

None of the complaints are about the GitHub business model, which is IMO pretty fair.

  • True, I guess with Atlassian it's different as their actual flagship product is Jira (and I assume the people who buy the paid-for BB packages are loyal to BB due to things like the free repos so it evens itself out).

  • GitLab offers pretty much the same as GitHub and is free (as in FLOSS). Their hosted version also offers free unlimited private repositories.
