I don't see Gitlab mentioned anywhere, is something wrong with it? Or am I wrong and it's not a GitHub alternative?
Gitlab is also going all-in on AI.
Ew!
Depends on context really. If you're looking for a hosted solution similar to Github, Gitlab is much more expensive. Our team was on a self-hosted version of Gitlab but needed more change control around PR reviews and merging. We moved to Github and got that for $4 per user per month where that same functionality would've cost ~$30 per user per month on Gitlab. That's a crazy price difference and was easily worth the migration to Github for our use case.
