That's the trend for today. In two weeks the sentiment will be "Oh screw it -- this is more involved than we though... we'll stay on GitHub for now and wait and see."

In short: it's the developers' version of #DeleteFacebook

GitHub has something like 75 million repositories. GitLab seeing a spike of ~40k repos being imported so far would need to continue for 5 years to match GitHub's current scale.

I just assumed devs were testing it out; most devs love testing alternatives and even occasionally retesting them to see if the alternative has caught up to the de facto answer.

This seems like the most likely case. Who's really taking the time to move their production repos to GitLab over the weekend based on a Friday rumor?
