I know this is probably a controversial post but seeing how big and bloated Gitlab became after years of devops dragon-chasing, i switched to gittea. https://gitea.io/en-us/

I keep separate CI and a separate wiki, so i can upgrade them independently and not have the entire software development process grind to a halt whenever I need to patch.

I don't think that's controversial, I think it's different use cases. If I want a simple git repo I'll go gogs/gitea, but GitLab is an all-in-one tool for a software shop.

Hi GitLab employee, just gonna echo what the other person said and say that it isn't controversial to say that! We know that we don't work for every situation, if all you need is a repo, then by design we can't compete with how lightweight something like Gitea is.
