I hope it is, since it was a major pain point before.
Secondly, I'm actually grateful for all these years where Github was amazing and helped the open source tremendously, my projects included. Github had ten amazing years. I'll be forever grateful for that. It still helps the OSS community, by the way, despite all its uptime challenges.
Thirdly, I agree, there are UX challenges that are barely justifiable, but on the uptime front, I sympathize with their teams to have to deal with the gazillion pull requests and comments made by AI agents and bots, which indeed impact performance tremendously.
Now, headlines are only about hundred of billions. I do not know what to think about that, apart from the fact that I wish that we were putting that money to enhance human lives in general. Of course, people will say that these tools will help humans in the future, but 1) at what costs, and 2) I would prefer, I don't know, bridges or infrastructure, or free healthcare, or food for everyone.
Gitlab is a terrible company, period.
I would rather say that the core product is not strong and differentiated enough to resist this new age of coding, and it's an attempt to protect revenues.
Click bait at its peak.
This tool opens the doors to a path where you control the memory you want the LLM to remember and use - you can edit and sync those files on all your machines and it gives you a sense of control. It's also a very nice way to use crons for your LLMs.
We don't need all this - but it's so fun.
