I prefer GitHub myself. I tried using GitLab for my private projects, but their service is usually very slow. Taking 15 seconds to load a page is just not acceptable, in my opinion (this is not an exaggeration - their average page load times seem to be at a minimum of 5 seconds). If you don't want to pay, though, it's one of the better options. Their integrated (also free) CI service is nice. However, the UI/UX is not very good. It can be difficult to navigate source code and between issues in their issues system.
$7 for a GitHub account with unlimited private projects is a pretty good deal, especially compared to their previous pricing tiers. I also think the experience of using one website for most open source projects as well as private projects is better.
- sytse 10y agoThanks for your comment. We know we have to do better on performance, see my earlier answer in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12056276 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12056276 How can we make issue navigation better? By the way, what do you think of the recent menu redesign? https://about.gitlab.com/2016/06/06/navigation-redesign/ https://about.gitlab.com/2016/06/06/navigation-redesign/
