#general. I'd quite like to be able to mute almost all middle management. Hearing people like 'head of people' or 'release manager' spout inspirational management quotes just makes me cynical and miserable. I'm

That blog is from 2021 - this was a couple of years ago so things may have changed. But back then you'd still find quite a few paths back to the Gitlab issues - it never really went away, it just replaced a few issue links.

Yeah I liked Gitlab when we used it for everything, but once we started to integrate with other services (Jira etc) instead of the built in functionality it felt like you were fighting how they had designed it.
