In December 2025, GH announced a new $0.002 per minute "cloud platform charge" for developers using self-hosted GH Actions runners on private repositories.

Upon creating a new GH account, GH restricts the use of certain domains. This often occurs upon the attempt to use an e-mail alias (a unique e-mail address that hides your true address, allowing you to disable incoming e-mails from spammers and advertisers. This disables the use of e-mail aliases and puts the users' privacy at risk.
When creating a new account on the platform, GH restricts the use of emails from certain domains, such as to disallow the usage of {{Wplink|email alias|email aliases}}. Which a user might use to preserve their privacy.
