Isn't that pretty much GitLab? But then most people still prefer GitHub anyway.

Gitlab is worse than GitHub in every way.
At least GitHub adds new features over time.
Gitlab has been removing features in favor of more expensive plans even after explicitly saying they wouldn’t do so.
Gitlab works fine for me. Been using it at work for a few years and recently moved all my personal repos there
Personally, I prefer the CI/CD setup on GitLab over GitHub Actions.
Horses for courses I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Gitlab is part of the reason I'm thinking along these lines: It has been around for a while, as a known, reasonably popular alternative to GitHub. So, I expected the announcement to be "We moved to GitLab", Yet, what I observe is "We moved to CodeHouse" or "We moved to Source-Base" The self-hosting here with mirrors to two one I'm not familiar with is another direction.
I think people are wary of moving to gitlab because its a similarly large platform and dont want to repeat their mistakes
GitLab is too heavyweight for many projects. It’s great for corporations or big organizations like GNOME, but it’s slow and difficult to administer. It has an important place in the ecosystem, but I doubt many small projects will choose it over simpler alternatives like Codeberg.
