This depends on Gitlab, but the author still can't bring themselves to host it on Gitlab? I love Gitlab, but that's not promising...

  Odd you say that - I love Gitlab too! Most of my stuff is on Gitlab.com with syncs back to Github.com. This time I thought I'd try out Github Actions, hence the Github-first drop. I'll set up a Gitlab.com sync in a bit.

      Nice. I still get 2 Cmd+F on Github though. One dotfile, other one being $ go get github.com/bradwood/glsnip I suppose $ go get gitlab.com/bradwood/glsnip would work fine? Seemed to work here.

  I had the same thought. I love Git Lab and strongly believe it should be the default home if open source. It seems wrong to me that a proprietary product (GitHub) is where open source lives. That said, I also just GitHub because discoverability for a new project is terrible on GitLab because of the network effect. Even contributions, where people are more motivated to find and contribute, will drop 10x by moving to Git Lab. It sucks, but we have a hard chicken and egg problem here and I don't know how we fix it. It almost seems easier to convince Microsoft to open source GitHub than to convince millions of people to migrate in unison.
