I think my productivity would 2x or 3x if gitlab would work on fixing issues with core features such as task planning. There's a lot of minimum viable features that never got improved, especially for those of us on the premium tier. AI sound cool but at this point I'm just expecting another half baked feature that checks boxes for executives to justify purchasing it.
Yup, it's "funny" that even basic functionality doesn't work as expected: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/350662 I encounter this issue pretty often and it makes code review experience miserable. It's not blocking any work, but it is frustrating enough that for any new project I would try to avoid using Gitlab

Hey - I'm the PM for our Code Review group. Sorry to see you're running in to that issue, it's been a real challenge for us. If you're running in to it pretty often, it'd be great if you could provide some details on what steps you're taking (maybe even record a video) to help us figure out what's going on. For lots of bugs, the hardest thing for us to do is reproduce them... so if you've got a reliable way to do tha…

#94> GitLab plans to improve its customers' DevSecOps workflow efficiency by 10x, by applying AI-assisted workflows I'm also planning to improve my fitness by 10x from tomorrow. Using AI obviously! But today let me eat this pizza
You have the right level of cynicism, but you should instead direct it at the field of DevSecOps as a whole. 98% of "SecOps" is utterly pointless boxchecking for ass-covering security certifications which waste immense amounts of time and enforce nothing meaningful. You could ABSOLUTELY 10x workflow efficiency there by plumbing the codebase for questions like: "What are all the OSS libraries you use, and the licenses…

#97Maybe GCP, Azure and AWS could pull together the text to train a language model to tell us how to deal with their fucking stupid UIs and arcane terminology. I dread having to use their cloud portals. How do you find a VM by IP address in Azure? that kind of thing.
Use the APIs

#98At that point there are not anymore good reasons to favor Gitlab against GitHub regarding the path they are following.

Yup, GitLab features are actually fairly good (much better than GitHub IMHO). By far the biggest thing I would ask for is polish. Flesh out existing features, fix bugs, improve UX flows and improve performance.
Bug fixes, UX improvements and performance improvements are added to the monthly release blog post, for example GitLab 15.11 [1] - in case you want to follow these updates more closely.
