I would say it's normal for businesses which are engaged in competitive feature development.

Stability & reliability are relatively easy to achieve if you aren't changing the software frequently.

I'm pretty sure they're constantly working on their software (at least GitLab is), so "aren't changing anything" does probably not apply.

That was my point. If you want stability, look for someone who is no longer funding a substantial development team to work on the software.

This is a profound insight.
