Gogs looks quite polished and it might attract people who needs to setup a new server. But once you setup your workflow you don't want to worry about it for a while because you want to focus on the actual work. Switching the tool is of the least concern unless the old one broke.

I've been using Gitlab to manage all my personal projects and I am grateful of how many features and constant improvements I get for free. Lots of free software have terrible UIs, eg. ReviewBoard, Jenkins, Graphite etc (these are great projects btw, just the UIs still look like from 2000). But Gitlab's UI is modern, elegant, and shows me all the activities on my projects. So I check my projects regularly and feel encouraged to work on them. Granted I can't tell if it scales for big teams but it is not an issue because I only share the instance with a few friends.

It has ran worry-free for me for almost two years besides occasional updates because I wanted the latest UIs and it helped me focus on coding. Thanks for the great work!

Hi txu, glad to hear your enjoy GitLab. An GitLab certainly scales for larger teams. We have a customer installation with more than 10k developers and there are more than 30k active users on GitLab.com

And we're spending more time to polish the UX to make sure it looks good.
