I've experienced so much downtime and other random outages with GitLab that I would probably just go to GitHub if I was going to pay for something.

I've been between github and gitlab lately, mostly because gitlab had private repos and I'm developing a new FOSS app that I want to release at a later point.
But recently I wanted to create a new simple public repo for a small task and gitlab just refused to work. Eventually there was some sort of ghost repo created that prevented me from using the path I wanted, but it wouldn't show up in my projects.
So to get on with my work I created the repo at github.
Sad because I was really invested in migrating from github.
