Anectodal: I work for a small scale company and we've just moved from self-hosted GitLab to GitHub for exactly this reason, after our (not-patched-since-eternity-because-no-one-has-time) GitLab servers got infected and started participating in a [D]DoS attack.
- raffraffraff 5y agoUnrelated to the original post, but why not go from hosted gitlab to SaaS gitlab? As someone who has used both, I would have stuck with gitlab, even if it was simply to keep things as similar as possible for engineers.
- can16358p 5y agoWe were actually deciding between GitHub and GitLab, and think GitHub in the long run was better as it's now owned by a giant like Microsoft which I'd trust more in terms of company size and stability. I know it's kind of a capitalistic view, but I have to think about my own (projects') security/safety and letting MS host feels safer than letting GitLab host.
