As a CEO for a bootstrapped tech startup, coincidentally using Gitlab for our repo, Gitlab's (free) compensation calculator was a godsend as I analyzed the costs of hiring and scaling up. I would never have had access to salary information as nice as this, had Gitlab not put it out there. I certainly don't "deserve" such nice resources on the web, and I appreciate it while it lasted, but is there a way I can find a replacement for information like this?

That said, the resource will become more and more obsolete as the time goes on.

Well I wouldn't rely on it if I were you as it gave nonsense results for where I live. Recommending senior salaries so low that I wouldn't advise a new-grad to take them.
