New to GitHub and a bit confused by private vs public collaborators.

If I do a Micro account with one private collaborator but have 5 total team members wanting to contribute, how would the remaining four apply? I see it has unlimited public collaborators.

So what is the difference between Private vs Public Collaborators on GitHub?

    If you have private repository and 5 collaborators, you need something bigger than Micro plan. For all private repositories you manually select collaborators in the admins tools of your repository, as you have micro plan, you can add only one collaborators to your private repository.
    In other case if you have public repository, it doesn’t meter which account you have, everybody can fork and contribute to your project.
