Lots of layoffs (“re-evaluating our operational footprint”) and switching to “agentic” processes. Target user is AI.

Anyone still hosting Gitlab?

    Still hosting gitlab.

    The CI on forgejo is, unfortunately, nowhere near as good.

    Given how long gitlab has been struggling to fix basic bugs and instead creeping into features - hello-oo bloated and slow vscode-like web editor and non-ephemeral runner management - I’m not sure they have any staff left to let go. But it’s nice they found an excuse to shed their remaining talent and avoid complete stock devaluation.

    The planning is happening openly, including a voluntary separation window.

    “We don’t understand how the Dead Sea Effect works, and we want to super-size the damage.”. Okay. Bill.
