The Github website is slow everywhere. It is truly a piece of shit software both in terms of performance but also UX/UI and everything in between.

It's a product of many cooks and their brilliant ideas and KPIs, a social network for devs and code being the most "brilliant" of them all. For day to day dev operations is something so mediocre even Gitlab looks like the golden standard compared to Github.

And no, the problem is not "Rails" or [ insert any other tech BS to deflect the real problems ].

Have you used gitlab every day in anger? I don't think you'd feel the same if you have.

I both use gitlab, and run our gitlab instance for our company, with as many as 700 users.

I still love it! Works great, makes sense, is fast...
