Would you say Github has any significant advantages over Gitlab in this regard? I always found them to be on par, with incremental advantages on either side.

One of my favourite GitHub features is the ability to do a code search over the whole of GitHub, not sure GitLab has the same when I use to use it?

Code search over all of Gitlab (even if available) wouldn't help much when many of the interesting repos might be on Github. To be truly useful, it would need to index repos across many different forges. But there's a tension in presenting that to users if you're afraid that they might exit your ecosystem to go to another forge.
