i love DO and I have just started using gitlab. they're both great. it even makes sense to offer existing customers a credit in this industry because with redundancy and just private/personal deployments ect people often have accounts at DO, AWS, Azure and Google, maybe even rackspace or an IaaS provider like heroku or engineyard. I know your comment was in favor of DO, and mine is as well in a dif light. Winning a primary customer or "engagement" is big. Digital Ocean retired a bunch of credit I had. I emailed support and asked for ot back amd they gave it to me. Sort of a hassle, but you know what? Digital Ocean is going against the biggest providers and provides simplicity and community and I love them for it. They help new devs learn. They're acquisition strategy was hiring a content creator as a 1st hire to write tutorials and build a community. Another credit and better integration reminds customers why they stay with them (and gitlabs why they are a great offering). I like gitlabs and digital ocean. As an intermediate dev, it is a perfect ecosystem. I jave heard there are some security or package issues, but for me, I can get what I need done. Simple API. Simple Pricing. Amazing Support. Great Community. So i use them. They're credits keep me saying great things about them because I rarely have money so this goes an extra bit. Its prob worth $10 to them that I tell every beginner to use DO and regularly tweet thanks to then
