The Gitlab one is actually maintained. They haven't been using GitHub for a while now. (Plenty of updates to the extension have occurred within the past 6 months, the date of the last commit on GitHub)

The gitlab one is "clean". But i don't remember the exact details regarding what it means. Just not to use the "dirty" one.

The "clean" version is a fork made by someone else, non-clean version has/had Google Analytics in it, and the fork is more actively maintained

#8What's the relation between the Gitlab repository and the Github one? https://github.com/iamadamdev/bypass-paywalls-chrome
The github repository isn't under active development. The gitlab repository exists because a contributor was frustrated with the slow updates, forked it, fixed many bugs and removed google analytics, and actively maintained it.

https://github.com/eugenesvk/bypass-paywalls-chrome-clean
(It does seem to be more up-to-date than other mirrors I've found)
Edit: It's about 300 commits old.

The clean one is not “clean” in that it still does all kinds of tracking
