It looks like unlimited private repositories, Gitlab Pages and even some CI minutes (2000/month) will continue to be available in the free plan. Gitlab continues to provide such phenomenal value to free users that I struggle to find a reason to upgrade for my own projects. :)
That said, if I were running a business the extra workflow management tools in the bronze plan ($4/user/mo) and CI minutes in the silver plan ($19/user/mo) make total sense as useful upgrades.
