"The Github website is slow everywhere."
Perhaps it depends what software one is using
For example, commandline search and tarball/zipball retrieval from the website, e.g., github.com, raw.githubusercontent.com and codeload.github.com, are not slow for me, certainly not any slower than Gitlab
I do not use a browser nor do I use the git software

Generally, I am not after Javascript, CSS, or other non-substantive "resources". I only want the HTML or JSON and any susbstantive resources pointed to therein I use the Github website as I would any software mirror/repository I'm not interested in images (mascots or other garbage) or executing code (gratuitous Javascript) when using the Github website, I'm interested in reading and downloading source code
