Anecdotally I've found Github much cleaner-looking, much faster and more usable than Gitlab. Github was never opensource, and I think people used it for all of the above. I'd be surprised if the recent acquisition changes that.

I feel like part of this minority. I find GitLab's UI less clean and more difficult to process, and miss the social interaction features like the feed.

I preferred GitHub's UI because it was cleaner and much faster to load.

I'm part of it too. Some years ago I was looking for an alternative to GitHub, with free private repositories for some personal projects I wanted to keep private. After a few weeks on GitLab I ended up moving to BitBucket because it was generally faster to use

While the feed is interesting, I've often found myself wishing for a quick way to get to a list of all of my repositories on GitHub.

GitLab's initial screen is that list.
