Glad to see GNOME supporting another OSS product, even if GitLab uses a hybrid OSS/proprietary model.
Don't understand the hate here for GitLab. It's a rapidly developing product, so yeah, it's got some rough edges. But my experience with it has been hugely positive, and I much prefer it over GitHub for a number of reasons. Integrated CI is a huge plus; for instance, I've set up a project that runs a static site generator after each merge to prod. This is certainly possible with other tools, but I'd rather have a one-stop shop. (This is why I also like Visual Studio Online, at least for professional work.)
Even if you're a die-hard GitHub fan, you have to acknowledge that some competition in this space is healthy. We don't need a repeat of the Sourceforge debacle. Centralization is dangerous.
