See this post of mine, from about a year ago:

> A pragmatic reason for putting public projects on gitlab instead of github is their attitude to privacy. Most notably, github shows a feed of all public activities of each user without any option to hide it. This would be completely fine and expected from social network like facebook, but not from a code hosting website. I’m even a bit surprised that only 15 registered julia packages use gitlab. The above applies to public repos only, because activity in private ones obviously doesn’t show anyw…

Btw, looks like now 45 packages in `General` are hosted at gitlab. A 3-fold increase over a year (:
