Agreed, nobody's perfect.

My experience with github is much better though on average. Haven't had a single bad experience personally the past year for my personal stuff. Not once. Github does only one thing, the CI is usually somewhere else so there have less reasons to fail as well... It might be comparing apples and oranges.

We use Gitlab at the office and it is constantly slow. Might be our setup I agree, but in the end it also tarnishes the brand to me.

All in all, my general experience is that speed and stability has degraded over the past years, in favor of the 'whole in one devops pipeline'. Github stayed focus on its core market.

This is changing with Github Actions.

Well gitlab does artifactory/docker management, security, value stream management, . . . So still

GitHub now has package registries and security scans too, and adding more features to complete the lifecycle.

Wasn't aware. Will look into it. Thanks!

To be fair, Over the last 5 years, I've been hit by several Github outages and never been hit with a Gitlab outage. The reason? I don't use Gitlab during my working day. Similarly with this one, I wasn't doing anything on Gitlab when it went down.

Interesting. My issues have been in the evening :). Are you in the US? I am EU based
