I really don't understand this. I would like to subscribe, but I can't because only the organizations I'm part of but not admin of are paying...

Can you not be added to a team of the said organization ? Or is it that github is not allowing team members of organizations to participate ?

I was able to sign up without a paid plan, but perhaps that's because I've got a student account (comes with free private repos).

That means you are on a paid plan, but have a discount applied (which happens to be the cost of the lowest plan).

No conspiracy theorist has yet claimed that github posted this on HN to get people to pay for a plan, right? :D
