From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

No worries, gitlab is a trash Ruby on rails app anyway 😹
JK I do love gitlab, sad to see the corporate takeover. What features dont you get with the foss version? Can't figure it out amongst the marketing cruft. Seems like it would be relatively easy to build another hosted gitlab provider.
So why does gulab need to kyc anyway? And if it's a legal requirement, won't GitHub do the same?
Is KYC a thing outside finance?
It will be if digital ID rolls out with CBDCs.
This isn't KYC, it's "prove you're a human".
I guess gitlab is just the first to realize that captchas don't cut it anymore
