I fear this is going to be the cause of the slow death of gitlab. They over-promised on far too many features and have underdelivered with many half baked products and MVPs that have been left to rot. I like the product and the company but they clearly tried to do too much in order to gain market share. GitHub needs competition so it would be great for GitLab to thrive, but the state of the product worries me.
- gen220 3y agoThe recent Shopify memo re "Main Quests" and "Side Quests" applies. I'm hopeful GitLab can turn it around, but at this point it feels like GitLab might be going the way of Jira.
- imrehg 3y agoSince this comment intrigued me, this is the other HN post that the above memo refers to: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35813763 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35813763 which links to the Shopify blogpost: https://news.shopify.com/important-team-and-business-changes https://news.shopify.com/important-team-and-business-changes Cheers for highlighting it!
