Are there any plans for the JupyterLab and colab to unfork? Parts of colab seems nice but this feels like a google product that could get pulled at any moment

There's also an official Google drive extension for jupyterlab worth checking out. I know they demoed it a few times before the v1.0 release it looks very promising.

Also worth checking out is the renderers, the vega and geojson ones are really cool.

As the readme states, the realtime API it relies on has been deprecated.

As far as I can see there's no way for a user to set the size of their infrastructure.

Yeah, you can connect your GPU for machine learning, but that seems to be it.

You can use it with GPUs: https://towardsdatascience.com/fast-ai-lesson-1-on-google-co...

I've read Google Colaboratory provides 12 hours of free GPU usage. Even without using the GPU, I find the Colab version useful

And they now support both Python2 and Python3.

How much public information is there about how much support this will get outside of Google?

very little is likely the answer
