There are very interesting ways around this, eg with some decentralized architecture supporting coins to pay hosters to host people's data, eg Axiom https://axiom.org/

There's no reason github couldn't exist in a truly decentralized environment where people retain ownership of their data, and also retaining its tiered payment structure.

It's just a matter of market forces giving them an incentive to move in such a direction.

I believe most people would choose to retain ownership of their data if they could, as long as it's free and zero effort.
