> going from 50M of <thing> per day to 2B <thing> per day will break pretty much any system anyone has ever built here This is likely a pricing failure. Systems breaking due to over-usage is like going to the store and finding that they're sold out. You're much less likely to sell out if you charge more. Meanwhile, GitHub not only didn't raise prices, they cut them at the beginning of the year: https://github.com/resources/insights/2026-pricing-changes-f... And this is beside them cutting the Pro tier from $7/seat/month to $4/seat/month back in 2020 and not touching the price since: https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/learning-about-github... Bear in mind as well that the Pro tier includes 3,000 minutes/month and the Enterprise tier ($21/seat/month, and no published minimum seat floors) includes 50,000 minutes/month. $21/50,000 minutes/month for a solopreneur is practically giving away the farm. GitHub needs to drastically increase pricing, at least for Actions; their current pricing is practically a WTO dumping violation. | ||

It makes sense but in a post AI world - what is of value? Not the software itself, but data and network effects. MS needs to move from a world where their proprietary software makes money, to one where they enable a captive network and have data; Github provides both. So maybe them providing service at literally all costs to themselves is a smart strategy long term. | ||
