@ZacSweers@hachyderm.io In particular, their costs are almost certainly driven principally by downloads, but they are billing based on uploads.

I am one guy, with effectively one open source KMP library, and I am already over all three of their limits for June. I am *quite* confident that my library has not been downloaded especially much.

Time to find a new artifact repository, I guess. Or, worst-case, create another of my own. 🤷

@nixCraft@mastodon.social FWIW, I wrote about that malware pattern 6 months ago: https://commonsware.com/blog/2025/12/14/compose-github-repositories-malware-vectors.html.

I was only tracking changes in a few topic areas, not across all of GitHub as you are -- excellent work!

GitHub has largely been ignoring me as well. 😞

Alas, it is time for more uncomfortable questions, in this case regarding the announced Android developer verification program: https://commonsware.com/blog/2025/08/26/uncomfortable-questions-android-developer-verification.html #AndroidDev

Well, I finally flipped the #OpenToWork flag on my LinkedIn.
