I believe self-hosting is a pretty new option. Gitlab always had it afaik.
Self-hosted GitHub enterprise exists since like 5 years ago.
Yes, a product that is twice as expensive as Gitlab and has like 10% of the features.
So you (like 95% of the commenters here) prefer Gitlab be cause it’s cheap.
Bodes well for the business model. Commodity pricing only works when the market gets bigger as the price goes down. Otherwise, it’s just a race to the bottom.
No, that's not what I said at all. I like it because it's fantastic value for money based on the features you get included with it, all in one place.
It's better than paying for 10 individual tools that don't work well together.
