I have been using GitHub for maybe 4 years and I feel like the number of features rolled out this year blows away the other years.
Review groups and Projets (kanban) have both been great.
GitLab started applying pressure and I think GitHub responded well, staying competitive in the face of a competent challenger.

VC money lets you buy new sneakers but if you're looking to lose weight, a tiger chasing you is a much stronger motivation.
- matt4077 10y agoIt may have just been a coincidence. I believe they brought major features online two or three weeks after the HN-hatefest against them started, hardly enough time. I'd also like to point out that Github was probably the most important change in OSS software by a wide margin. People easily forget comfort they've grown accustomed to, but it's worth to take a trip into the past from time to time: https://sourceforge.net/projects/avogadro/?source=frontpage&position=2 https://sourceforge.net/projects/avogadro/?source=frontpage&... (and that's today's sourceforge – they didn't do much, but 10 years ago it was definitely even worse)
