For some reason, I find it much easier to remember to visit Cloudflare blogs, solely due to the fact the URL is blog.cloudflare.com and most of the good content is located there.
It might be worthwhile for the Gitlab community team to consider changing https://about.gitlab.com/blog/ to something not tucked away on the about subdomain.
I also realize I might be in the minority of users typing out URLs (no use of bookmarks).
