Unfortunately they denied my application when I tried to get one during my college years.

I felt envy seeing some my peers (who had no existing repos, or far fewer than me) get free PRO accounts while github probably though I should just buy one.

Long story short, I created a bitbucket account and later made heavy use of gitlab.

That's crazy. If you don't mind me asking, why did your application get denied?
