yea, whats your point? you expect them to host the site out of goodness of their hearts?

HN is ycombinator trojan horse for HN startups with full censorship of articles critical of their startups. Yet you are here aren't you?

The point is that you state "Gitlab seems a little too enterprisey for me" and then call out Github as the perfect example of how it's supposed to be done. Which is quite peculiar, given that if anything Github its motto is "how businesses build software" - it is an enterprise product they are building their business on. Hence I mockingly stated that the "joke's on you".

GitHub's community existed long before GitHub enterprise.

It was a natural transition. A Github solely running for "the community" would result in an unsustainable product which can only survive at the scale of Wikipedia-donation cycles.
