You can't, without paying, sit on a namespace for years and do nothing with it, if there is interest from a user willing to pay. And even if that is what you're doing, gitlab will contact you before taking back the account to make sure you don't suffer data loss. I don't know, this seems pretty reasonable to me, especially considering gitlab is a business and provides you with a free service. You just have to log in more than once every two years! I don't blame Gitlab for not understanding the levels of self-entitlement of some of its free users. And maybe, just maybe, Gitlab is better off without those users. In my experience, the cheap customers were always the worst and most demanding.
