Blame node and "small modules." Value per repo now wildly divergent between communities.

Maybe they didn't get it right, but per-user captures value better IMO.

strong disagree. value-per-user curve is high for the first few and lower and lower as you go on.

this means you are unlikely to add low'ish value users, which brings down the total quality of the service.

it also means that people will do things like 'maybe everyone can share a single push token' and 'maybe X is better than GH issues'

which also reduces the value of the service

I think github is struggling with serving different usage models with one payment structure. Always hard.

something like "per commit" works well for a lot of different patterns, but isn't so easy to pitch.
