What's the point of moving from one proprietary service to another? One day GetLab will get acquired by another tech giant, or will stay the same - it doesn't matter too much, because it's already owned by private company and venture capitalists. They do what they want, and they definitely won't turn down million-dollar acquisition offer.

I thought Phabricator was open source?

GitLab (the product) is, for the most part, not proprietary?
