Are they actively trying to hasten their own demise? I guess I'll be moving our (FOSS) container images to GitHub Registry... but what a pain :/

- toastal 4y agoCan you move to GitLab? GitHub is purely proprietary which doesn't match the spirit of FOSS. At least GitLab is open core.
- martypitt 4y agoGitlab have been increasing pricing heavily recently, especially in storage-heavy areas such as containers. I don't think they're likely to be a cost-effective differentiator against what Docker are now charging.
- jck 4y agoiirc gitlab's free tier has a storage and bandwidth limit which applies to the container registry too. That makes gitlab a no go if you want to share containers widely.
- candiddevmike 4y agoJust did this yesterday, it was surprisingly easy. I used the HashiCorp Vault secrets plugin for GitHub and pushed containers via GitHub Actions, so for me it became more secure than storing and retrieving a docker hub API key.
- davedx 4y agoGithub also charges for usage. Are they also hastening their demise? AWS also charges you to host things in S3. Is it hastening its demise too? This argument is just weird to me.
