I’d add that, even when you put aside everything you mentioned, GitHub isn’t even a good product to host your company’s code. It’s designed like a social network for open source stuff and it really shows in the UX. However, most companies uses GitHub to host their private repos and GitHub is pretty dumb at it. The core feature companies will use is Pull Requests but the implementation is garbage vs GitLab. The rest is either useless in corporate environment or not good enough. From my experience, GitHub is everywhere because founders used it by automatism and by the time you’d feel like you need an alternative, it’s too much pain to change anyway. I’ve never seen any company having any reason to and wanting to transition from something else (except from SVN) to GitHub.
