Why GitHub?

I can't help but notice most (all I've seen anyway) of the federated projects are hosted on GitHub. GitLab is also not federated, but can be self hosted and has at least discussed it.

I am fully aware of my bias for GitLab over GitHub, but I still wonder why is those things? Is there a federated source hosting project?

I haven't run into the resource issue (running in docker), but yeah I wish I could turn off some UI features. We never need to upload designs so why do I have to look at it on every issue?

You can turn off features by default! Check your gitlab.rb and you will find even more stuff they have bundled in there that is off, like a matter most server 😀

When I looked some could be disabled and some couldn't 🤷
