You said "absolutely no reason" and I gave you an edge case that invalidates your statement. Maybe "generally no reason" would be better?

  Nothing in the world is absolute. However so far I have not hear any non nebulous reasons why an Open Source project should be on gitlab.

    Because GitLab is open source, and the alternatives (GitHub, BitBucket) are not.

      > Because GitLab is open source, and the alternatives (GitHub, BitBucket) are not. That's not a reason to use the hosted gitlab version, that might be a reason to self host gitlab.

        Not really - if you are into open source because of the ideology and not just for the price then GitLab makes a lot more sense. If I find a bug in GitLab I can feasibly submit a patch for it.

          Also, if you need to, you can migrate to a self-hosted setup without switching to another platform. There's a built-in tool that makes this easy.
