There's also the feature comparison chart: https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/gitlab-com/feature-comparis...

You don't even need the trial. Just press "Register" to get the standard login page for GitLab.com. From there you can sign in with GitHub (or make an account) and explore the platform for yourself.

The trial is just for the paid subscriptions. The normal, free account has access to all of the platform's Gold features as long as the repos in question are public (or internal, just not private).

> Yes! As part of GitLab’s commitment to open source, Gold project-level features are available for free to public projects on GitLab.com. Gold group-level features, however, still require a subscription, for reasons explained here[0]. For organizations interested in free Gold features for groups, we also offer free Gold and Ultimate to educational institutions and open source projects[1].

Note that public repos inside a public group do have access to Gold level features. It's just the group level features that are restricted.
