Enjoying @gitlab so far (it's #FLOSS) https://gitlab.com/brainwane/randomized-dystopia Your experience? For miniprojects, any reason NOT to move GitHub -> GitLab?
I'm now at gitlab.com since they bought (and will be closing) gitorious.org, and so far so good =)
I certainly prefer it over the too-famous-too-huge-too-centralized github.com.
Just to be a nitpick, but the version on gitlab.com isn't fully FLOSS - it's the FLOSS version of gitlab plus some proprietary pieces. But it's certainly better than github which is 100% proprietary :-)

Ah, per https://pump.saz.im/sazius/comment/xTcQrZtUTtKfj5ywI7vZhA the version up at gitlab.com includes proprietary pieces. Good to know.
Compared to github though, it's much easier to rehost from gitlab.com and get reasonable feature parity. Most of the proprietary stuff is authz-related stuff that often doesn't come into play.
I guess the two big things people might want are git-annex and hooks.
