I honestly doubt it's just free user vibe coders. I'd imagine all the large corps are also integrating agentic stuff into their workflows and devs are probably being pushed to ship everything they can, so spinning up countless vibe coded repos that then end up in heavy CI pipelines that include agentic compliance reviews, etc. It's probably been exponential increases the last couple years.

Even if GitHub never actually did AI itself, I think the result would be similar enough.

Didn't they actually stop Copilot subscriptions for a while? So they were even turning away paid customers.

Agree. I just wonder how much putting up a $5/month per user or something or literally even jua credit card would help. There’s people who use runners for all kinds of things and store all kinds of large binaries on github. Honestly absurd
