I have the exact opposite experience. GitHub CI is probably the worst CI I've used so far (except for custom homegrown messes), and Gitlab CI by far the best.

- bastardoperator 4y agoGitLab CI isn't even on the radar. I'd take Actions or Buildkite anyday over the existing offerings. I'd argue the GitLab CI ecosystem is non-existent.
- synu 4y agoWow! I’ve heard GitLab CI is hard to learn because it’s so expansive, but never that it is non-existent. Do you mind sharing more?
- _joel 4y agoIt's patently wrong there is no community, I've been part of it writing buildpacks.
- dnsmichi 4y agoGitLab team member here. I'd recommend starting with one of the workshops listed here [0] and maybe dive into more learning resources and the documentation. Our community platforms, such as the forum [2] and Stack Overflow, etc. [3] are also a great place to ask questions and collaborate on challenges.

- bastardoperator 4y agoWhen I talk to Hashicorp or AWS they provide tooling specifically for GitHub Actions. I don't see the same level of vendor commitment when it comes to GitLab. If I'm not going to get vendor commitment I might as well run buildkite which is awesome or even look to something like Tekton for Kubernetes if I'm just doing Kubernetes anyways.
- synu 4y agoGotcha, that makes sense. Thanks for replying.
