        Can you believe I got downvoted though, for a half decent joke on HN ...

    You want to get feedback from your picky free-customer "children" before it's your enterprise customers talking about data egress.

  Whose opinions are left? The adults are all moving elsewhere. Heck I stopped using it for projects in 2018, even before the acquisition. My company was going to end a 6-figure YoY contract with a GitHub Actions competitor to move to GitHub, but scrapped those plans and renewed this morning. That move had been in planning for like 6 months.

It's not great. Just talked to a hubber last week. They said everyone inside feels pretty dejected right now, and these posts don't help. I feel for them -- with AI coders submitting 25 PRs within an hour of an issue being filed, GitHub bears the brunt of that along with the maintainers. That's a lot of work that gets done with each PR. But they need to make some changes quickly.

  I wouldn't feel too bad for them with their top-of-market comp and valuable RSU packages.

    GitHub doesn't pay top of market.

      You're right. That being said, 300k TC for E4 is still pretty good. Plus the RSUs have gone up like 60% in the last several years so that 300k package from a few years ago is maybe 350k or more by now. My point is that they are compensated well. They should be feeling pressure to get this stuff right when their product is core infrastructure for a majority of the digital products that exist today.

    I don't believe they pay top of market, but even if they did, it's possible to make a lot of money and still feel bad when you have a sense of ownership and responsibility to the users of your service.

      You missed my point.
