Just like everyone has already done I'd also recommend Codeberg/Forgejo👌

Is every mother fucker just going bat shit insane this year? Goddamn it.

Oh god that is so cringe. Just getting into coding i have no idea what to use as an online repo. I dont want to use github because microsoft but i want the basic repo collaboration features to be available cloning, pull requests, issues etc.

1. Software will be built by machines, directed by people.

2. The agentic era multiplies demand for software. As the cost of producing software collapses, demand for it will expand.

objectively insane.

Governance built into the core.

I still believe that's not possible, but that's only my opinion.

lol I just created my gitlab account today to get away from github and after reading this the account has been scheduled for deletion and now I have a new account with Codeberg. When are these dipshits going to learn that we don't want AI in our workflows? I am capable of breaking things on my own, but at least when I break things I will learn from it.

I don't think that they've used enough buzzwords.

This reads almost like a parody.

Gitlab CEO - 16 years in Microsoft, Gitlab CTO - 13 years in Microsoft
Can we say Microsoft Gitlab ?

Ouch. My company was just about to start moving over to GitLab off of Atlassian.

They endlessly tooted their horn about their diversity and fully remote operations. So this is pretty rich.

“This isn’t cost cutting” Oh, fuck off. This is trimming the fat before they try to look for a buyer again.

I always love to see companies do this with a semi open source product with investors

The code gets closed, a small clump of users split off, make their own version with beet and hookers, and soon the vast majority of the users following because the real open source one is so awesome

That was jellyfin's story, but this is a variation on that and I've seen this story many times now

Bye bye gitlab,rest in pieces

Idiotic. Use codeberg.

Sucks, I manage GitLab in our company and it’s been difficult to maintain already without the vibe coded shit updates that break everything. I’ll need to see what are our options our but my assumption is that there aren’t any.

Some examples of the mindset we expect every team member to embody:

• I take pride in my work because it delivers real outcomes

fucking drones

This is why we built and released the Duo Agent Platform in January. Our first quarter adoption is promising, and we're ready to accelerate.

This is so weird. They gave a Duo presentation at our company and I was a bit second hand embarrassed because it's just bad.

Anyway, the stock price will probably go up after this announcement...

All I see is layoffs and creating office space to force people to go to office. Well RIP Gitlab.

Forgejo is great.

The only upside I see is their stock has fallen since this announcement. Perhaps the market is finally getting that companies pushing AI isn't a universal good thing?

Ok what are we going to call them now? Gitslop? Sloplab?

Still hosting gitlab.

The CI on forgejo is, unfortunately, nowhere near as good.

Given how long gitlab has been struggling to fix basic bugs and instead creeping into features - hello-oo bloated and slow vscode-like web editor and non-ephemeral runner management - I'm not sure they have any staff left to let go. But it's nice they found an excuse to shed their remaining talent and avoid complete stock devaluation.

The planning is happening openly, including a voluntary separation window.

"We don't understand how the Dead Sea Effect works, and we want to super-size the damage.". Okay, Bill.

Shameful behaviour.

We are uniquely positioned to not only participate, but to lead in our category where the TAM is exploding at a step function rate.

Gitlab and gitlab-ci really are great and easy to support with little problems as long as you update regularly. It really does look cringe, but they always were chasing current dumb thing relentlesly.
