The parasites are still making money. Rocking the boat would temporarily interrupt the party, they’ll continue to party until they’re forced to change.

The repo specific config is a single file. You can also import templates/other files if need be. I worked in a shop where Devops set up a bunch of templates for generic, common jobs which made getting started easy. If custom config/code is required, overriding a templated job was easy. I was responsible for migrating my team’s ~50 repos (services, libraries, etc) from Jenkins + Bitbucket into Gitlab and found it to be pretty straightforward.

Gitlab CI feels native. Github offers similar functionality but it feels/looks like an afterthought. I think the Gitlab .yaml structure is more intuitive. Also, how the Gitlab UI visually represents a pipeline is mcuh better, IMO. Self hosting runners on my server (Ubuntu) is so easy and free. I hadn’t tried it with Github but it sounds like it still costs money?!

Note: I don’t work for Gitlab

IMO, Gitlab CI/CD blows Github out of the water. They’re not even in the same league. I recommend Gitlab + self hosted runners (it’s so easy).

I’ve been using Gitlab for many years and host my own runners as of the past 6 months because I nearly exhausted my monthly free tier runner minutes one month.

I hate to say it but they likely won’t. Establishment democrats are complicit.

My guess as well. Historically, the FBI has spent substantial resources infiltrating groups deemed even the smallest threat to state power.

Yet. Google is an ad company that pushes ads nearly everywhere else. Shareholders/Wall St. demand infinitely increasing year over year profitability. It’s only a matter of time.

So no consequences.

I agree, the damage is done.

DocumentDB is a NoSQL-ish database implementation built on PostgreSQL that has been accepted by the Linux Foundation. It was created by Microsoft (under MIT license) in response to MongoDB’s more restrictive licensing.

Time will tell what adoption is like or if Mongo will change it’s licensing to be more permissive.
