Guys who prefer GitLab, I am sorry. No university research project, no commercial job has ever asked me to use GitLab. They have all asked me use GitHub. From a purely popular choice and to prevent all of us from having to create yet another account (I am sure most everyone already has a GitHub account) and learn yet another tool, can't we just settle on GitHub. Would it make anyone extremely unhappy? GitLab is not my preferred choice.
