I made a tool that monetizes GitHub repositories

Hacker News

Hey HN, I just launched my very first SaaS! It's a platform that allows creators and developers to monetize access to their private GitHub repositories without taking a cut of their revenue. Why I made it: I make content on YouTube where sometimes I share source code through my Patreon, but the process of zipping up files and uploading them is pretty tedious. Worse, when I make changes I have to zip it up again and re-upload it. It's even more annoying when people want to discuss the code, but they can't on Patreon, so they have to share snippets through screenshots on Discord. I hope this product helps some of you out there. I'd love to get some feedback from you all! Thanks :)
