Why aren’t people moving away from Github? There’s Codeberg, Gitlab, and radicle. What’s holding them back?

    Ok admission time. I have a project in GH that I could, for example, migrate to GitLab but I’m concerned it would break the pipeline or have a disastrous customer facing impact.

    Edit: there are people (ahem) who might know code… but not everything re consequences of shifting a repo.

      Gitlab’s pipelines are way better than Github actions IMO. The only downside is the lack of a market, but otherwise, it’s definitely worth the switch.

      But it’s difficult to give advice without more details. If you’re stuck in some system that only plugs into Github, you have 2 systems to switch instead of one.
