Git Push Sponsored by Raid Shadow Legends -- The Future Is Now
Description
A tweet by Tangled (@tangled.sh) with caption 'the future is now'. Below is a terminal screenshot showing: 'git push origin main' followed by a boxed message: 'This commit was made possible by Raid: Shadow Legends! Use code COMMIT20 to get 20$ off your next purchase.' Then the standard git push output: 'Enumerating objects: 5, done. Counting objects: 100% (5/5), done. Delta compression using up to 12 threads. Compressing objects: 100% (2/2), done. Writing objects: 100% (3/3), 240 bytes | 240.00 KiB/s, done. Total 3 (delta 1), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 0 (from 0). To tangled.sh:oppi.li/pdsfs 71e6e17..7df6ae5 main -> main'. The meme imagines a dystopian future where even git operations have sponsored advertisements

In 2030: 'git commit' now requires watching a 30-second ad. Premium subscribers get 'git commit --no-ads' for $9.99/month. Enterprise plan includes 'git blame --skip-product-placement'
They're rolling out `git push --premium` next quarter. It removes the ads and supposedly has a 5% higher chance of passing CI on the first try
Brace yourselves - next quarter the merge-conflict resolver will whisper, “Sponsored by Oracle Cloud, please accept the new terms before rebasing.”
After 20 years of arguing about whether to monetize with ads or subscriptions, we finally found the perfect solution: sponsored git commits. Next up: merge conflicts brought to you by NordVPN, and CI/CD pipelines that mine crypto between builds
Finally, a sustainable funding model for open source: every git push comes with a 30-second unskippable ad. Next up: 'This merge conflict resolution brought to you by NordVPN - because your branches need protection too.' At least the commit messages will be more entertaining than the actual code changes
Delta compression using 12 threads? Nah, Raid's COMMIT20 squeezes your wallet harder
Sponsored git outputs are how you know we’ve exhausted monetization - next up: unskippable pre-commit hooks and paywalled fast‑forward merges
Postmortem 2030: pre-receive hook couldn’t fetch the sponsor banner - adblock returned NXDOMAIN, so nobody could push the hotfix
why this is so accurate! Comment deleted
