Both suck
Github is pretty amazing, better than Gitlab or Forgejo imo, however, fuck Microsoft.
Why is GitHub better than GitLab? Did I miss something big or are you refering to smaller differences in function? I thought GitLab offered basically the same core functionality as GitHub.
the interface is not near as slow and clunky IMO, and it's always broken when using JShelter extension for me
GitHub can talk to me when they let me self host and have better ci/cd
The only good thing about GitHub is the fact that its backend is git
I'm impressed it hasn't become a bloated copilot mess like all other Microsoft products have. It's still relatively as quick and functional as it's ever been.
I wouldn't say it's perfect. Definitely not. But it's definitely on the highest end of Microsoft owned products.
Probably because it's very similar to how it was before they bought it.
I primarily do not use it for development though. So take that with a grain of salt. Some small projects I contribute to still.
Just give it time. Microsoft's modus operandi is EEE; they're just having to contend with the absolutely massive user base, so they're moving much more slowly.
GitHub certainly is as "functional" as it's ever been, and no more. Basic search is still laughable, for example.
There are better backends though.
