- jiofih 6y agoI pay for GitHub
- zenorocha 6y agoI disagree with the argument that developers don't pay for things. Yes, there's a huge open source culture where people can have access to free code on GitHub. However, there's a huge market of paid products that developers will purchase. There are many examples out there like Tailwind, Chakra UI, Envato, etc.
- duckmysick 6y agoYes - developers. Look how many of them pay for Digital Ocean/AWS to host their projects instead of rolling their own servers.
- grumple 6y agoYeah, but that also serves the purpose of making us encourage our workplaces to use GitHub, and they pay for it.
- kcartlidge 6y ago> not developers, look at GitHub - it's all for free I do use the free stuff (GitHub, VS Code, etc). And I also pay for NCrunch, Wallaby, RubyMine, Rider, GoLand, PyCharm, FastMail, PCloud, and more. Most of the stuff I pay for has free equivalents (and yes, I know JetBrains have an all-products subscription rather than separate Ruby, .Net, Go, and Python, but I have reasons).
