Meanwhile GitLab is crashing... but Bitbucket is up. If you haven't used it in a while, probably worth another look. It's gotten a lot nicer in the last few years, and the code review and CI features are especially good.

IDK about bitbucket, maybe it's just me, but the page loads are like watching paint dry. So slow.

Don't get me started on their redesign, making everything blue doesn't magically make it usable. Code review using -u style diffs?! With huge embedded comment slabs! What were you thinking? After three comments, even a small function doesn't even fit one one page, absolutely painful and almost impossible to read the code.

It's not like it's very hard to do a visual diff, it has been done zillions of times. Heck I implemented a partial 'visual' diff in SQL once, should be easier than that when using a proper programming language.

Sorry about that. The link from this discussion is to our public monitoring site (separate from GitLab.com). GitLab.com itself it online and the monitoring dashboard is working again, too.

Source on gitlab crashing? I'm using it right now and it's fine other than the monitoring page getting resized right now due to very unusual load.

I'm having pages take 15-20 seconds to load for me, personally.

I don't know about you, but every other day or so I receive bitbucket status alerts about some part of it not working properly.
