I'm incredibly pleased about Microsoft's acquisition of Github, as I notice visible improvements every passing month. Considering Gitlab's pricing, I wonder why anyone would abandon GitHub Team or Enterprise plan in favor of Gitlab. Gitlab's costs are exorbitant, and they resemble Atlassian products, with an overwhelming number of features that are rarely used, cluttering the interface and diminishing the overall user experience.

I am not pleased with Microsoft. Yes, there have been some improvements. But GitHub Actions is very half baked, yet the bean counters at my company are asking "why do we pay for buildkite?". It feels like they are using the same playbook as MS Teams.

I would still ask why would you pay for Buildkite.

Github Actions might not be the best but so is Buildkite. It's not exactly strictly better in every way.

Having used all 3 mentioned, it'd be Gitlab > Github > Buildkite for CI/CD for me.

Github wins at least by the sheer community support. Every vendor has an action.
