The last time I checked, GitHub has 0 ads on it. And they're clearly not making any money off of their users, because features like paid accounts don't exist. It's impossible to monetize a product without slapping tons of intrusive advertisements all over the place.

https://github.com/settings/billing says otherwise, mate. I assume the sarcasm was to the fact that you can't make money without ads, as opposed to being sarcastic about having no paid accounts.

Sorry if the sarcasm was lost on you. GitHub very obviously has paid accounts and makes money without ads.
