Did you know you can get pro with github for free with a school email?

This to me is probably the most useful aspect

Quote:With GitHub Pro, your personal account gets unlimited public and private repositories with unlimited collaborators.

Quote:Repository insights graphs: Pulse, contributors, traffic, commits, code frequency, network, and forks

Pro accounts used to be the only way to have private repositories (or more than 5 or something). A few months ago (around when Microsoft bought GitHub), they switched it so free accounts can have unlimited private repositories. That's when I switched to free, which is convenient because I was thinking about switching to GitLab around that time.

Free accounts also get the insights graphs, it's just only for public repositories. So really, Pro is only useful if you need more than 3 collaborators for a private repository.

All accounts now can have unlimited private repositories. Free accounts are way better than they were even just a few months ago.
