If gitlab keeps up with this hostility even towards paying customer a fork will be incoming sooner than later.

You can always run a GitLab CE instance on your own, takes less than five minutes to set up at any Docker hosting provider you want.

There are no limits when self-hosting.

Last time I looked into Gitlab CE I decided not to go with it because there is no pull mirroring outside of their Premium offering, I would consider this a limit.

Limits are not features. There are no limits on number of users, number of repos, etc. etc. However, you're fairly obviously not getting any of the features that are in the paid tiers of gitlab's own offering. It's open core[1], rather than just open source.
