I’m not familiar with GitLab Pages but you can already use any static site generator with GitHub Pages as well.

Huh, turns out you're right. Not sure if that was the case when I started moving to GitHub (~15 months ago) or not, but looks like it's a thing now.

But still, you can do other things like selecting a different code highlighter (which GitHub deprecated recently).

It's always been the case. Github Pages has always been just a static file host.

To clarify, you mean you can if you add the output to your git repo right? Currently I have gh pages set to automatically build my site with jekyll, but I believe they limit plugins to only safe ones.
