Hmm. I work at a state government agency that uses GitLab. Should we be looking for a different source control supplier? I know we host it internally (our agency has a rather strict anti-cloud policy), and do pay some for support, so we might not be in the same situation as the clients/customers using the free version.
replyMy current company also uses GitLab, but the amount of projects we have would be hard to migrate. I don't think we'll be moving anytime soon.
replyTry running forgejo for your own projects, see what you think of it. Doing the research beforehand helps a ton for your DevOps team.
Biggest blocker with forgejo is that currently it isn't possible to create "projects" or "subfolders" like in gitlab.
replyI don't think Gitlab have ever moved functionality from Community to any paid version, but you should understand carefully if the functions in the paid (and not open) versions of Gitlab would ever come on your radar. It's not unlikely as user numbers and user organisations increase. It'll be exactly at the point switching to eg Forgejo will be painful enough to pay. Switching when still small is easier.
