I lead the Developer Evangelism team at GitLab.

  That explains a lot EDIT: to elaborate, I agree with other commenters that seem concerned with Gitlab's direction. It's hard to put my finger on what exactly bothers me, but to take a stab at it: Gitlab always seemed to pitch itself as the nerdy, more open little brother to Github. I'm currently on the free plan, but definitely consider/considered going for a paid plan. But this blog post plus the 'developer evangelist' give me pause and make me feel like Gitlab is aiming to just be a less well-funded Github. If you're going for the developers, it's best to avoid corpo-speak and the blog post and 'developer evangelism' is full of it.

      My apologies for being a bit harsh. I know you're just doing your job.

        No problem at all. It was a good zinger.
