GitHub is more expensive than I thought

I'm also surprised and understand now the real reward of self hosting Git

It was expensive because many developers started on sublinks, and I've been paying annual subscriptions. Next month it'll be less (depending on how many join)

Yeah... I wasn't expecting it to cost so much. It's near the price of the hosting of all the services combined.
