Now it finally makes sense why they didn't invest in federation. Google has a 22% stake in the company. Federation is of absolutely no use to them. Most likely, if they buy it, Gitlab will be integrated into their GCP offering then stripped for parts to fit whatever vision Google has in GCP.
Although I have no idea why Datadog would want it...
It was nice while it lasted. Hopefully contributors move over to Forgejo.
