"you can use GitLab.com for free" It seems like that is the main selling point. However, I think that most of us don't want the extra weight of managing yet another tool. Thus why many of us use GitHub to begin with and not something else...
Just to clarify GitLab.com is their hosted version, not the self-hosted option (Which is GitLab CE)

That's offensive to people with receding hairlines. Turnabout's a bitch, ain't it?
In popular American usage recede is not associated with hairline. People with receding hairline are not marginalized by society. Now "bitch" that's offensive. Edit: spell correct.

recede is less ambiguous.
Recede doesn't mean the same thing. If something advances, then it receding means it moves in the opposite direction. If the advancement is retarded it still advances but more slowly.

"retard" is also a correct word to use here; it means "to delay". > If you would like to know why it's offensive to some people, I could educate you. Could you educate us as to why it's offensive in this context ? I think we all know why calling a mentally handicapped person "retarded" offends some people, but no one did so.
Since you asked, Words are powerful and stir up emotions. In this context, someone stigmatized as "slow" or "dumb" by society, reading a sentence with the word "retard" in it has to deal with bad memories from the past rather than understanding the concepts in this sentence. Clearly, an alternative word choice exists. That's one reason why it's offensive.
I really liked Gitlab when last I tried it, but in the end I went with https://gogs.io/ instead. For a small-ish team this felt like the most straight forward self-hosted solution. Still missing LFS though, which sucks, but it's being worked on.
We've been using https://rhodecode.com for internal repositories: it is also open source, yet has better interface and out-of-the-box LFS support.

We recommend Gogs for people that want to run on machines with little memory, it's great.

Someone had to design that automation. And it sounds like the message was at least made to look like it came from a person.
Go read up on Github user: CoralineAda [1][2] Then consider that GitHub hired her. I would not be surprised if the this automated script and her employment were directly related. [1] https://github.com/opal/opal/issues/954 [2] https://github.com/CoralineAda?tab=activity

By quoting Seinfeld you are showing that you are living in the past. You are also trivialising the real suffering and daily struggles of mentally handicapped people by comparing it to the "struggle" of bald people. Once again "bitch" is an offensive word.
Once again "bitch" is an offensive word. FINE. Turnabout is fair play. I think you understood precisely the point I was attempting to make specifically by phrasing it the way I did . If your analysis of communication is to unpack and divine words back to one specific meaning but not others, how do you communicate[1]? How do you know which meaning to take issue with (that's a genuine question if you care to bother) an…
My short answer is by listening.
I will write a longer post if time permits about what I have learned.

I'm in an asian country where racist is (mostly) not a thing, so why people cares about those rates is a mystery for me. In my thought, if there are 2 candidates for a leader role, and they decided "oh, we need more women in leader rank, we should chose her", it is just wrong. Race/gender shouldn't be even considered as a factor in those situations.
Which asian country is that, because I'm not immediately thinking of too many that fit that bill.

You've never heard the term receding hairline? I would think that hairline would be the first thing Americans would think of when hearing the word recede. I must ask, where did you learn English?
