I agree. GitLab was arguably a better product for a while back when GitHub didn't even have integrated CI, but at this point most of the features they are adding just feel pointless to me. I primarily just want a place to store my code, track issues, and run automated tests.

GitLab was already a bit of a tricky sell due to most open source code being on Github, but now it is either $48 / year for Github or $348 for GitLab. The math just isn't mathing.
