Well, they are stretching and extending gitlab with more and more functions.. With a... Not so great code base..

Is there any code base in this world that developers would not complain about? ;)

The one that will never be deployed on production. Real world unfortunately corrupts beautiful code with it's pesky complications.

The only perfect code is the one you write, all others are crap

Hi, what could be improved in GitLab's code base in your opinion? :)

In the past people have suggested we rewrite GitLab in Scala, Haskell, Node.js, and IIRC also regular Java.

I think it mostly comes down to "I didn't write it, so it's bad" :)

Suprised no rust or elixir there.

Nah, i don't care which language. Like, at all. I just think that gitlab outgrow ruby.
