Anyone know why GitHub has made this decision?

  no reason is given in the article, but the usual reason to avoid paypal is because their fees are like 3 times higher than alternative payment processors.

  I would speculate that since GH covers fees for sponsorship, they've decided Paypal's fees are too steep

    PayPal recently took a 5% fee, and held another 15% for a week. They also charge like 5% on currency conversions. Now add taxes and there's not much money left over!

    Seems odd to drop support for that at such a short notice; it's not like these fees are new, right?
